I figured out the chords two years ago and here they are: It is a song out of the second album "Change everything Change" performed by Del Amitri in 1992. Even the album isn't as good as the first one, there are a few good songs. Try this one ... INTRO G C G C G D C D G G C C9 C G The bus is pulling out and I guess I'd better go Am C C9 D D9 Before I make a grave mistake and let my feelings show G C C9 C G And twenty miles away she waits alone for me Am C C9 C D D9 But when I try to picture her you're the one I see C G D C And in another situation I could put up a fight C9 D G But you will be my downfall tonight. G C C9 C G So the night is coming down, drowing us in blue Am C C9 C D D9 And it all points toward the things we know we shouldn't do G C C9 C G And as I look at you and fall under your spell Am C C9 C D D9 Well I know I should be thinking of her lying there herself. C G D C And when faced with temptation you know a man should stand a fight Am D G But you will be my downfall tonight. Bm Bm7 Bm D Dsus4 D Am Am7 Be my downfall be my great regret be the one girl Am Am7 D Dsus4 That I'll never forget Am Am7 D G C G C C D D G Be my undoing be my slow road to ruin tonight. Bm Bm7 Bm D Dsus4 D Am Am7 Be my downfall be my great regret be the one girl Am Am7 D Dsus4 That I'll never forget Am Am7 D G G Be my undoing be my slow road to ruin tonight. G C C9 C G So the bus is pulling out and I'm grounded here with you Am Am7 C C9 C D And I want to say the sweet things babe I've always wanted to C G D C So tell me now the tail-lights have gone out of sight C D G Baby want you be my downfall once again tonight. That's it.
