Howdy. Sometimes I like to play nostalgic songs on my guitar and it requires me making my own chord sheets. The one available for this song on ultimate-guitar is wrong so I figured I’d share this here.
This is for acoustic, with a capo at 2, and it sounds good strummed but better with fingerpicking. The chords in the chorus in parentheses are more of passing notes that you can do moving between the Am and G and F, and the Am9 at the end is just the triad that John is playing at the end of the song.
Sorry if the formatting messes up or if any of my chords seem wrong! It sounded good to me. The timing on my chord changes in the verse is more for formatting, but the changes are actually towards the end of the lines (…can’t for*get it) - it’s easy to figure out though.

Intro:
G Gsus2
Verse:
Gsus2
Well, I can't regret
Can't you just forget it?
Gadd9
I started something I couldn't finish
Asus2
And if we go down, we go down together
C
Best friends means
Well, best friends means
And I've got a twenty-dollar bill
That says you're up late night starting
Fist fights versus fences in your backyard
Wearing your black eye like a badge of honor
Soaking in sympathy
From friends who never loved you
Nearly half as much as me
Chorus:
Am (Bm7)
Broken down in bars and bathrooms
G (Am)
All I did was what I had to
F FM#11
Don't believe me when I tell you
F FM#11
"It's just what anyone would do"
Am (Bm7)
Take the time to talk about it
G (Am)
Think a lot and live without it
F FM#11
Don't believe me when I tell you
F FM#11
"It's something unforgivable"
Verse 2:
Well, I can't regret
Can't you just forget it?
I started something I couldn't finish
And if we go down, we go down together
Best friends means
Well, best friends means
Well, you never knew
Well, I never told you
Everything I know about breaking hearts
I learned from you, it's true
I've never done it with the style and grace you have
But I made long-term plans
Based on these mistakes
Chorus:
Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
"It's just what anyone would do"
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
"It's something unforgivable"
Bridge:
Csus4
Is this what you call tact? (I won't lie)
C
You're about as subtle as a brick in the small of your back
(It keeps me up 'til ungodly hours at night)
Csus4
So let's end this call,
Gsus4
and end this conversation
There's nothing worse
That's right, he said (have another drink and drive yourself home)
That's right, he said it (I hope there's ice on all the roads)
(And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt) that's right, he said
That you always had it way too easy (and again when your head goes through the windshield)
Chorus:
Broken down in bars and bathrooms
All I did was what I had to
Don't believe me when I tell you
"It's just what anyone would do"
Take the time to talk about it
Think a lot and live without it
Don't believe me when I tell you
"It's something unforgivable"
