For the intro play: |D-sequence|D-sequence|G-sequence|D-sequence| During the verses, you can play the above rhythms or just the plain chords, which are these:
       D 
What's passed these hands?
All these drugs and one night stands
      G                                 D
So I tremble when I think of what she'd do
She'd say something like:
 D
"You're no good,
You're like the junkies in this neighborhood"
       G                              D
We all need a fix, I guess I need one too

        Em (7 fr.)      A (5 fr.)
But I'm trying madly to calm these nerves

               D (10 fr.)
With something new

              D
I've got this heavy debt, I've got nothing left
But this daunting weight slung ‘round my neck
            G
You got the callous mouth, all your endless doubts

              D    
We spent these fifteen weeks, trying to work it out

       Em                  A           D
Do you think we're getting to something new?
(Intro chord sequence on “new”) |D-sequence|D-sequence| N.C. Oh God, not another fight I'm always trying to get the details right
  G                                  D 
I remember when you told me you felt saved

         G                               D
And you promised you'd lay flowers on my grave

     Em                A
Just like they used to do

                D
Is it something new?

        D
And now here I stand
With these blood soaked hands On these sleepless nights that never end
          G
All these songs I sing
All these hope I cling to
D
Desperately wondering

       Em              A           D
Are we finally getting to something new?
(Intro chord sequence on “new,” continuing over final lyrics.) Is it something new? Are we finally to something new?
