Key: :[F#] (w: Sting)

INTRO: [D5]

VERSE 1:
[E5] If the night turned [F#5] cold, and the stars looked down
And you hug yourself, on the cold cold ground
You wake the [Bm7] morning, in a stranger's [E] coat, no one would you [F#5] see
You ask your-[Bm7]-self who'd watch for [C#m7] me,
My only [F#5] friend, who could it [B9] be
It's hard to [Dadd9] say it, I hate to [C#9+(no5)] say it, but it's probably [F#5] me

VERSE 2:
When you belly's [F#5] empty, and the hunger's so real
And you're too proud to beg, and too dumb to steal
You search the [Bm7] city, for your only [E] friend, no one would you [F#5] see
You ask your-[Bm7]-self, who'd watch for [C#m7] me,
A solitary [F#5] voice to speak out and set you [B9] free
I hate to [Dadd9] say it, I hate to [C#9+(no5)] say it, but it's probably [F#5] me

BRIDGE:
You're not the [Bm7] easiest person I ever got to [E] know
And it's [A] hard for us both to let our [F#m] feelings show
Some would [Bm7] say I should let [E] you go your way, you'll only make me [Amaj7] cry
If there's [Bm7] one guy, just [C#m7] one guy,
who'd [F#m] lay down [E6] his [F#m] life for you and [F#m/D#] die
I hate to [Dadd9] say it, I hate to [C#9+(no5)] say it, but it's probably [F#5] me

INSTRUMENTAL:
[Bm7] [C#m7] [F#5] // [Bm] [E] [F#5] //
[Bm7] [C#m7] [F#m] [E6] [F#m] [F#m/D#] //
[D] [C#9+(no5)] [F#5]

VERSE 3:
When the world's gone [F#5] crazy and it makes no sense
There's only one voice that comes to your defence
The jury's [Bm7] out and your eyes search the [E] room
And one friendly face is all you [Amaj7] need to see
If there's [Bm7] one guy, just [C#m7] one guy,
who'd [F#m] lay down [E6] his [F#m] life for you and [F#m/D#] die
I hate to [Dadd9] say it, I hate to [C#9+(no5)] say it, but it's probably [F#5] me

OUTRO:
I hate to [Dadd9] say it, I hate to [C#9+(no5)] say it, but it's probably [C(b5)] me [B9]
