Chords

How is there no tab/chordage for this song??!? It's amazing. Shout out to the HQY Musician's Club ;) Capo on the 4th Fret The guitar is finger-picked at a fast pace throughout. Listen to the song for the pattern. The bass and drums come in with the Am in the 2nd "paragraph." [Intro] C (8 bars)
                 C
I can't live this way

                Am
Breaking all my rules again

              Em
Choking on my gin

                     B
You push 'til I give in

                      C
'Til the loser always wins

                 Am
Somehow with his beckoning

                  Em
Bruising with his threads

                  B
Confusing what he says

                     C
But I won't live that way (ay-ee-ay)

                         Am
Though I kind of want to anyway

                Em
Kind of want to play

                            B
With all the pretty and the pure

                     C
Well I return to the earth

                Am
I return to the dust

                      Em
No more beauty by the pound

                  B
And this I do not... trust

       Am         C
'Cause nothing forgives

F         Em            
Rules and narrow margins

G            Am
(ehhh, ehhh, ehhhhhh)

       C
In our lives

     F         Em
It's rules and narrow margins

           G           C
But I will slip by (-yyyyy)

                 C
I can't find the time

                 Em
I don't know the future

                      Am
I couldn't bring that past back

                    G
I waste what little time I have

                     C
But I swear I almost touched it

                          Em
Yet it slipped between my fingers

                     Am
Sent shivers down my spine

                     G
Cut a splinter in my mind

              Am        C
But it wasn't nothing, again

     F         Em
This rules and narrow margins

G            Am
(ehhh, ehhh, ehhhhhh)

        C
But our life

   F         Em
Is rules and narrow margins

           G           C
But I will slip by 

F         Em
Rules and narrow margins

G        
(eeeh, ehhh)

F         Em
Rules and narrow margins

           G           C
But I will slip by (-yyyy)
