Nothing Else I Could Do

Intro -x2-: Eb  Bb  Fm  Ab

Verse 1:
Eb                     Bb
I waited up for your call
                       Fm
You never told me you would
                       Abm
But the way that you smiled was a promise, I swear

Eb                     Bb
Fell asleep by the phone
                     Fm
I missed a message or two
      Ab                       Eb        Bb
Deleted them ‘cause they weren’t you

Pre-Chorus:
               Fm                            Ab                   Eb     Bb
I wrecked my house a hundred times just to see you walk into a room
                Fm                      Ab
But there was money in your laugh, so babe

Chorus:
                             Eb    Bb   Fm
There’s nothing else I could do
    Ab                                  Eb    Bb   Fm
Oh babe, there’s nothing else I could do
    Ab
-There's nothing else I could-

Verse 2:
Eb                         Bb
I miss the shape of your voice
                          Fm
I miss the nape of your neck
                            Ab
I miss the weight of your words

I miss the bruises they left


Eb                     Bb
Started reading the Times
                       Fm
Just to look for your name -
                Ab
I couldn’t find it
                            Eb    Bb
They must have made a mistake

Pre-Chorus:
              Fm                            Ab                         Eb   Bb
I broke my knuckles in a fight, you were crying in the back of the room
              Fm                    Ab
And now the world is on fire, but babe

Chorus:
                             Eb    Bb   Fm
There’s nothing else I could do
    Ab                                  Eb    Bb   Fm
Oh babe, there’s nothing else I could do

-Oh-

Bridge:
Fm                            Ab
 And they can dance to the songs
                               Eb
And they can drink all the wine
                               Bb
Because the high might be theirs

But all the bottles were mine


Fm                             Ab
 And then you’re crashing my car
                           Eb
And now I’m taking the blame
                              Bb
There’s nothing else I could do
                            Eb   Bb
They must have made a mistake


Fm
Oh

Chorus:
Ab                                 Eb    Bb
Babe, they must have made a mistake
Fm
Oh

Outro:
Ab                            Eb    Bb   Fm
They must have made a mistake
Ab                                      Eb    Bb   Fm
Oh babe, there's nothing else I could do
Ab                                      Eb    Bb   Fm
Oh babe, there's nothing else I could do
Abm
There's nothing else I could-
