Here are the words (from memory) and chords.
(Note that I'm not certain of the placement of the two choruses.)

>(unless TAB is necessary) to this song...
Hi again...
The basic chord progression is:
If you're down [F] [C] and confused...[Dm] [C]
There's a [Am]rose [G] in a fisted g[F]love...
Love the one you're w[C]ith[F] [C]
Love the one you're w[Dm]ith[C]
[Bb] [C]
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do...
The acoustic guitar is actually played in open C tuning, and the lower
strings form sort of a drone throughout. Low to high, the tuning is
-[C]4 -[G]2 -[C]2 [G]0 +[C]1 [E]0 (deviation from standard)
and the basic riff is then
005555 004003 002001 000000
Don't ask me how to play the Am-G-F part or the Bb-C in that tuning, though...
Andrew
PS: Incidentally, the Moody Blues' "Question" is also in open C, and uses
the *exact* same pattern under the "it's not the way that you say it" part.
Try it! The verses go
Why do we [Ebdim]never [Dm]get an a[C]nswer
where Ebdim = 000232 (that's right, the same fingering as D in standard)
Dm = 002001
C = 000000
