Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 3 half steps down [ -3 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 3 to stay in the same key

Verse 1:
Bb
I was on the way back
 Gm
Running from a ghost that
  Eb              F
Haunts me in my head
 Bb
You can always tell
 Gm
When i get that look
       Eb        F
In my eyes
  Bb
We're sitting in the park
      Gm
On a rock

Watching two dogs
  Eb                  F
Fight it out over nothing
 Bb                          Gm
We didn't have anything to say
                      Eb        F
But i didn't really mind

Verse 2:
   Bb
Summer's on it's way in
  Gm
Talking in an accent
  Eb                F
Just to make you laugh
   Bb
Freckles coming out
             Gm
And you're drawing on them
   Eb      F
Making a map
  Bb
We're sitting in your bed
  Gm
Talking about your favorite book
  Eb                                 F
Trying to see if you really know Italian
 Bb
You called me by your name
 Gm
But all it did
              Eb       F
Was make me laugh

Chorus:
  Cm
Mmmmh
 Cm
Mmmmh
     Bb
So tell me something
          Gm
'cause you're becoming
     Eb                F
Thе only one i wanna see
                Bb
I don't wanna force it out
          Gm
Or put pressurе down about
  Eb                        F
What you really want from me
            Bb
Never given it much thought
            Gm
But now i can't help thinking 'bout
     Eb                     F
The fact that i just wanna be...
      Bb                          Gm
The only one who touches you at night
                            Eb
And if you cannot give me that
                     F
Then baby, give me nothing
          Bb                  Gm
Give me nothing, give me nothing
 Eb       F
Babe

Verse 3:
  Bb
Never felt so open
   Gm                Eb
Listening to Joni Mitchell
          F
In the evening
 Bb
You had never heard of her
       Gm              Eb
Which made you feel insecure
         F
For no reason

Bridge:
    Bb              Gm
And i would never say it out loud
          Eb              F
But i've rarely felt important

'til now
 Bb
I'm used to boys
  Gm
Taking me
       Eb        F
For granted

Chorus:
  Cm
Mmmmh
 Cm
Mmmmh
  Cm
Mmmmh
    Bb
So tell me something
         Gm
'cause you're becoming
      Eb               F
The only one i wanna see
               Bb
I don't wanna force it out
         Gm
Or put pressure down about
 Eb                        F
What you really want from me
            Bb
Never given it much thought
           Gm
But now i can't help thinking 'bout
     Eb                     F
The fact that i just wanna be...
      Bb                           Gm
The only one who shows you good music
                            Eb
And if you cannot give me that
                     F
Then baby, give me nothing
           Bb               Gm
Give me nothing, give me nothing
 Eb     F
Baby~ baby

Chorus:
     Bb
So tell me something
         Gm
'cause you're becoming
     Eb                F
The only one i wanna see
                Bb
I don't wanna force it out
          Gm
Or put pressure down about
 Eb                        F
What you really want from me
                 Bb
I've never given it much though
            Gm
But now i can't help thinking 'bout
     Eb                     F
The fact that i just wanna be...
     Bb                        Gm
The only one who kisses you goodnight
      Eb                              F
And wakes up in the morning by your side

Shows you all the songs he wrote about you
    Bb
And if you can't give me that
      Gm                     Eb
Then baby give me nothing, give me nothing
  F
Give me nothing, baby
