The prechorus is actually played with an extra guitar in Drop D, but since going into Drop D makes the rest of the song really difficult, the provided tab for the prechorus is notated an octave up. You could also lightly play the notated chords or palm mute them. [Verse]
Cadd9                                           G                  D/F#
I said I'll always remember the wood grain beneath my feet in a busy street

Cadd9                                              G
I never said I was angry, but I think I'm still in misery

         D/F#                  Em7     D/F#    G
But it's what I needed and you took me by surprise
[Chorus]
                    Cadd9                  G
Sometimes I think I'm bound for losing it all

                   Em7
And I thinking I'm weighing

            D/F#
I think I'm weighing us down

    Cadd9       G                      Em7
But no, I won't fall, and I wouldn't trade it

           D/F#
I wouldn't trade it

            Cadd9  D/F#  Cadd9
I'm down for life
[Verse]
Cadd9
Another day I was selfish;

                    G                        D/F#
It reminds me of my wasted youth and all the one's and two's

Cadd9
I try to live in the moment;

                     G                        D/F#
It reminds me of the time we spent trapped in your apartment

[Pre-Chorus]
   Em    D      G                       Em    D      G

Em7   D/F#   G
   We attract what we're ready for

Em7         D/F#    G
   It's something I can't ignore
[Chorus]
                      Cadd9               G
Sometimes I think I'm bound for losing it all

                  Em7
And I thinking I'm weighing

            D/F#
I think I'm weighing us down

    Cadd9       G                    Em7
But no, I won't fall, and I wouldn't trade it

           D/F#
I wouldn't trade it now

          Cadd9                   G
Maybe some promises were broken; wasn't holding tight

    Em7                      D/F#
But now I wanna know what it feels like

                      Cadd9               G
Sometimes I think I'm bound for losing it all

               Em7
But I wouldn't trade it

           D/F#
I wouldn't trade it

            Cadd9  D/F#
I'm down for life
[Bridge]
Em7                       Cadd9
Call it off, I've made my move

                               G
I'm defenseless and I could use some time on my own and a place to say

D/F#
I'm losing myself in the best way

Em7
Done with anything basic

Cadd9
I've had enough of the same shit

G          D/F#
Tell me why

[Pre-Chorus]
   Em    D      G                       Em    D      G
