4  -4   5,   6      -6    4  -4   5,    6         -6      4,       -4       5       4 4
I wish I, could do better by, you ‘cause that’s, what you deserve.
4       4  -4  5,    6      -6    4   -4  5  5,  6   4  4,    -4    5    4    4
You sacrifice, so much of your life, in order, for this to work.
4          4     4      -4  5     6     -6         5,        4  -4     5  6      -6    5  -4
While I’m off chasing my own dreams, sailing around the world,
4            4        -4     5      6     -6     5,       -4   -4  4  -3    4
 Please know that I’m yours to keep, my beautiful girl.

When you cry, a piece of my heart dies, knowing that I may have been the cause.

If you were to leave, fulfil someone else’s dreams, I think I might totally be lost.
 4         4      4    -4   5      6   -6        5,     4   4  -4  5      6       -6   5  -4

4            4   4    -4      5      6     -6   5,     -4   -4  4  -3    4

Hope this helps anyone who wants to play the song on the harmonica, I'm just a beginner and have tried as
best I can to work out the tabs by ear, switiching between the song and my C scale diatonic harmonica. 
The tab numbers and corresponding lyrics did match up but they've been thrown out by the editor. 
I hope they're still easy enough to follow. Any improvements to the tabs feel free to suggest 
but please contact me before altering. Finally, cheers to everyone who has uploaded harp tabs
on this site, extremely helpful for beginners like me. Thankyou and enjoy. Ross.
