Transcribed by Robert from Astlessons
(The first is an advanced version with fingerpicking, with the intro in tablature which you also can
use to figure the rest out, and if you're looking for an easy chord version I've added that below)
[Intro]: / / / / / / /
/ / / / / / / /
Please wrap your drunken arms around me, and I'll let you call me yours tonight
/ / /
Cause slightly broken's just what I need
/ / / / /
And if you give me what I want, then I'll give you what you like
/ / / / / / / /
Please tell me I'm your one and only, or lie and say atleast tonight
/ / /
I've got a brand new cure for lonely
/ / / / /
And if you give me what I want, then I'll give you what you like
/
When you turn off the lights, I get stars in my eyes
Is this love, maybe someday
/ / / /
So don't turn on the lights, I'll give you what you like
/ / / / / / / /
Emotions aren't that hard to borrow, when love's the word you've never learned
/ / /
And in a room of empty bottles
/ / / / /
If you don't give me what I want, then you'll get what you deserve
/
When you turn off the lights, I get stars in my eyes
Is this love, maybe someday
/
I've got the scene in my head, I'm not sure how it ends
Is it love, maybe one day
/ /
So don't turn on the lights, I'll give you what you like
/ / / / / /
(Give you what you like)
/ / / / / / / /
I'll give you one last chance to hold me, if you give me one last cigarette
/ / /
By now it's early in the morning
/ / / / /
Now that I gave you what you want, all I want is to forget
/
When you turn off the lights, I get stars in my eyes
Is this love, maybe someday
/
I've got the scene in my head, I'm not sure how it ends
Is it love, maybe one day
/ /
So don't turn on the lights, I'll give you what you like
/ / / / /
(Give you what you like)

(What you like)
[Intro]:

(the note on the open -string can also be played 4th fret -string if you prefer that sound)
