Chords

It's a pretty simple song. The picking pattern is just E A D G D A again and again. There are some odd pauses when he returns to the E at the start of each phrase but if you listen to the song you'll pick it up. [Intro] E G#m E G#m [Verse]
     E                         G#m 
Oh I etched my own name in the mountain

      E                        G#m 
But I lost all my nails to the fight

B
If you would let me explain,

    E              G#m 
I have aged and I'm frightened

      E                       G#m 
By the sound of my thoughts in the night

B
Oh, God, I swear it,
[Chorus]
E      F#        G#m       B
I hold myself to ransom

   E        F#       G#m 
And can't afford the fee

E      F#      G#m 
I gave away my eyelids

    E       F#        G#m 
And all I can do now is see
E G#m [Verse]
      E                      G#m 
Oh, I sold you a song to feel human

      E                        G#m 
But it made a great hole in my chest

B
If you would let me explain,

    E        G#m 
I'm insane, unenlightened

    E                   G#m 
And too goddamn tired to protest
[Chorus]
B
Oh, God, the lifetime I

E         F#       G#m        B
spent on writing love songs

E         F#      G#m      E
To people that ignored

    E            F#     G#m          B
I've looked for love in strangers

    E           F#       G#m 
I am safe, I am fine, I'm adored
E [Outro]
E    G#m  F#   
They love me

E    G#m  F# 
They love me

E    G#m  F#
They love me

E    G#m  F#
They love me

E    G#m  F#
They love me

E    G#m  F#
They love me

E
I know
