Hey guys, my sister likes this song and I'm looking for easy songs to play, so 
I ear-transcribed this and it's pretty nice and easy!  (Still can't play the 
chords fast enough myself, but oh well...)  I noticed that there are some other
chords for this song out there but I think this version sounds a bit more like 
the recorded version because it uses a capo, though it's probably still not 
perfect.  Towards the end, she starts repeating the chords for "I am giving up 
for greener grasses" before ending with the last chords in the chorus.

IMPORTANT: Use a capo!
Capo 5th fret

What if our baby comes home after nine?
What it your eyes close before mine?
What if you lose yourself sometimes? Then I'll be the one to find you
Safe in my heart

I am giving up on making passes and
I am giving up on half empty glasses and
I am giving up on greener grasses
I am giving up

I am giving up
I am giving up
I am giving up on greener grasses

I am giving up for you
I am giving up for you
I am giving up
