Barenaked Ladies - For You

I checked this against the Bathroom Sessions and made a slight modification to it 
for a bit easier play. Enjoy

(play Main Riff over 2 lines and repeat)
I have set aside everything I love
I have saved everything else for you
I cannot decide what this doubt's made of
Though I thought over it through and through


    Gmaj      Cadd9     Gmaj 
In a book in a box high upon a shelf
               Cadd9  Dsus4  Gmaj
In a locked and guarded vault
    Gmaj      Cadd9     Gmaj 
Are the things I keep only for myself
             Cadd9    Dsus4   Gmaj
It's your fate but it's not your fault



      Cadd9     Gmaj   Cadd9   Gmaj
And for every useless reason I know
          Cadd9   Gmaj  Cadd9   Gmaj
There's a reason not to care
     Cadd9  Gmaj    Cadd9  Gmaj
If I hide myself wherever I go
     Cadd9   Fmaj   D Dsus4 D
Am I ever really there?


(Main Riff)


    Gmaj      Cadd9     Gmaj 
There is nowhere else I would rather be,
               Cadd9  Dsus4  Gmaj
but I can't just be right here
    Gmaj      Cadd9     Gmaj 
An enigma wrapped in a mystery,
             Cadd9    Dsus4   Gmaj
or a fool consumed by fear


      Cadd9     Gmaj   Cadd9   Gmaj
And for every useless reason I know
          Cadd9   Gmaj  Cadd9   Gmaj
There's a reason not to care
     Cadd9  Gmaj    Cadd9  Gmaj
If I hide myself wherever I go
     Cadd9   Fmaj   D Dsus4 D
Am I ever really there?

I will give you all I could ever give
               Cadd9  Dsus4  Gmaj
Though it's less than you will need
    Gmaj      Cadd9     Gmaj 
Could you just forget, if you can't forgive
     Cadd9   Fmaj   D Dsus4 D
All the things I cannot concede


      Cadd9     Gmaj   Cadd9   Gmaj
And for every useless reason I know
          Cadd9   Gmaj  Cadd9   Gmaj
There's a reason not to care
     Cadd9  Gmaj    Cadd9  Gmaj
If I hide myself wherever I go
     Cadd9   Fmaj   D Dsus4 D
Am I ever really there?
