What have I got to do to make you love me
D (D7) |G F#m7b5 B7sus4 |* (see above)
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
(D7) |G |*
And I wake to find that you're not there
What do I do to make you want me
(D7) |G |*
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it's all over
(D7) | |**
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
| |*
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
