Pretty easy song, I would have posted sooner, but I waiting for the lyrics to show up on the internet. This was just released today (technically still unreleased at time of posting) but you can find it online at NPR's First Listen. Great song! Capo at 3. Here is that little intro:

Then: C
C
If you loosen liable lips 

C
You keep sinking all my ships 

Am                                   C
Oh and youre the one who sank my Lusitania 

Am                              C
But somehow it dont register as pain, at all 

G
Till it finds our crooked vein

F
It should help

F
Oh lets not remember the name

F
Oh-oh-oh ooo 

F                         C
You made lines along your shore

F
Oh no ooo 

F                                C
Through my heart that ripped and tore

F
Oh ooo 

F                           G
We dont study this war no more
Am, C, Am, C, G, F, C
C
So we let our backbones slip

C
Till the arc spits from my fingertips 

Am                               C
And well become a hazard in the rain

Am                               C
Boy well get charged out in the way

G
And theres a 60-cycle hum

F                                            C
Go ahead, say something dumb boy, theres no shame

G
Theres no shame

F                                            C
Go ahead, say something dumb boy, theres no shame

F
Oh-oh-oh ooo 

F                         C
You laid mines along your shore

F
Oh no ooo 

F                                C
Through my heart that ripped and tore

F
Oh ooo 

F                          G
We dont study this war no more
C [repeat the little intro line before each bar.]
