Capo on 3rd fret

Notes: this song is on piano with a few faint lead guitar riffs in C minor. I've roughly tabbed the main piano part, the rest I've just done as chords. For simplicity, I've used a capo, with all chords are relative to the capo.

VERSE 1: Am G F Suddenly I can't stay in this room. Am G F You'll never sway, and I have nothing left that I can think of to say. Am G F What do you want me to think of my thought? Am G F Bear it in mind, if I cannot believe in me who will I then be? PRE-CHORUS: Dm E F G And so I'll run but not too far, incase you chase me, oh... CHORUS: Am C G Am But this is how it goes, baby.

VERSE 2: Am G F So give me a tooth full of that smile, Am and know-it-all eyes you show me G F just to prove that you don't need to lose it.
