Police, Can't Stand Losing You (1978)
Key: :[Bm] (w: Sting) (BPM: 143)
INTRO: [Bm] [Em] :
[x4]
VERSE 1:
I've
[Bm] called you
[F#m] so many
[Em] times to-
[Em]-day
And I
[Bm] guess it's all
[F#m] true what your
[Em] girlfriends
[Em] say
That
[Bm] you don't
[F#m] ever want to
[Em] see me a-
[Em]-gain
And your
[Bm] brother's gonna
[F#m] kill me and he's
[Em] six feet
[Em] ten
PRE-CHORUS 1:
I
[G] guess you'd
[D] call it
[G] cowar-
[D]-dice
But I'm
[A] not pre-
[E]-pared to go
[A] on like
[F#sus4] this
CHORUS 1:
I
[G] can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I
[Em] can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I
[F#m] can't, I can't, I can't...
POST-CHORUS:
I
[F#m] can't stand losing
[Bm] you
[Em]
[Bm] I
[Em] can't stand losing
[Bm] you
[Em]
[Bm] I
[Em] can't stand losing
[Bm] you
[Em]
[Bm] I
[Em] can't stand losing
[Bm] you
[Em] [Bm] [Em]
VERSE 2:
I
[Bm] see you've
[F#m] sent my
[Em] letters
[Em] back
And my
[Bm] L.P.
[F#m] records and
[Em] they're all
[Em] scratched
I can't
[Bm] see the
[F#m] point in a-
[Em]-nother
[Em] day
When
[Bm] nobody
[F#m] listens to a
[Em] word I
[Em] say
PRE-CHORUS 2:
You can
[G] call it
[D] lack of
[G] confi-
[D]-dence
But to
[A] carry on
[E] living doesn't
[A] make no
[F#sus4] sense
CHORUS 2:
I
[G] can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I
[Em] can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
I
[F#m] can't, I can't, I can't stand losing
REPEAT CHORUS 2:
BREAK:
BRIDGE:
I
[Bm] guess this is our last goodbye
And
[Bm] you don't care so I won't cry
But
[Bm] you'll be sorry when I'm dead
And
[Bm] all this guilt will be on your head
PRE-CHORUS 3:
I
[G] guess you'd
[D] call it
[G] sui-
[D]-cide
But
[A] I'm too
[E] full to
[A] swallow my
[F#sus4] pride
REPEAT CHORUS 2: [x4]
