            Iris by Goo Goo Dolls is a great song, but it's played in a very odd tuning (BDDDDD). 
I've looked around a bunch and I couldn't find one that sounded just right, so I've 
taken parts from various versions and combined them to make this version, which I 
feel is the best sounding for standing tuning.

You're the closest to heaven that I'll never be

And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm               Asus4         G
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm           Asus4          G
When everything's made to be broken

Or the moment of truth in your life
     Dsus2       Em7        G
When everything feels like movies
            Bm          Asus4        G
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive


[Chorus]

       Bm            Asus4    G
And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm               Asus4         G
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm            Asus4     G
When everything's made to be broken
        Bm          Asus4      G
I just want you to know who I am

Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm            Asus4     G
When everything's made to be broken
        Bm          Asus4      G
I just want you to know who I am
        Bm          Asus4      G
I just want you to know who I am
