Great song from a great album. Listen to the track for the strum/picking pattern.
F             Am           C        F
    don’t you swing like a child,

         Am         C        F
    in a tree, on a tire, in 85?

               Am            C         F
    there’s an arc that your feet will ride

           Am          C             F
    on the way between hate and that sunday fire

F
    (and that sunday fire)
C
Am              F
    you look so serious

Am                  F
    oh, you look so serious

Dm               F
    the night is serving us

Dm                  F
    but you look so serious

C                  Am
    and this could be our reward

C              F
    this could be it

C                  Am
    and this could be our reward

C              F
    this could be it

Not perfect but you get the idea

                                 (overdrive fades in)    

         Am     F      C
    this simple friday night

                 Am        F    C
    where you’re loosening your tie

                  Am           F    C
    but there's a tightness in your eyes

Am              F
    you look so serious

Am                     F
    why do you look so serious?

Dm               F
    the night is serving us

Dm              F
    and we’re deserving it

C                  Am
    and this could be our reward

C              F
    this could be it

C                  Am
    and this could be our reward

C              F
    this could be it

C               Am
    (this could be all we're owed)

C                    F
    (all we're owed, all we're getting)

C                  Am
    and this could be our reward

C              F
    this could be it
F
         Am     F      C
    this simple friday night

                 Am        F    C
    when you’re loosening your tie

                  Am           F    C
    but there's a tightness in your eyes

    F           Am           C         F (Listen for pattern)
    cause if we swing like a child

               Am         C           F
    then we’re always colliding this time of night

            Am               C                  F
    but our arcs, they could align   (we could align! we could align!)

             Am      C             F
    and over gravity up comes this kicking child

         F
    this kicking child
