Chords

These are the exact chords played in the song, but I like the whole G, Cadd9 type of sound to acoustic songs. So I redid the chords a little to my liking. And since this song is in the key of "G" these chords sound really nice. Hope you like it (: Also, one little note on the chorus. In the real song when he plays the "G" and then the octave, I sortof do the same thing on the acoustic. I'll play the G chord, and then when the octave is played in the song I just strum the top two strings to get that octave type sound. Hope this helps. "C" "Am" "Fadd9" "G"

(Intro) C,Am,Fadd9,G (Verse)

C
You almost always pick the best times

            Am
to drop the worst lines

                                  Fadd9
you almost made me cry again this time

               G
another false alarm

red flashing lights

C
well this time I'm not going to watch myself die

C
I think I made it a game to play your game

               Am
and let myself cry

                                  Fadd9
I buried myself alive on the inside

                      G
so I could shut you out

                        C
and let you go away for a long time

(Chorus)

C
I guess it's ok I puked the day away

Am                                                    Fadd9
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way

                      G
and if you want me back

                        C
you're gonna have to ask

(Verse)

C
I think the chain broke away

                                    Am
and I felt it the day that I had my own time

                                        Fadd9
I took advantage of myself and felt fine

                         G
but it was worth the night

                         C
I caught an early flight and I made it home

(Chorus)

C
I guess it's ok I puked the day away

Am
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way

Fadd9
and if you want me back

G
you're gonna have to ask

Am   G  Fadd9
nicer than that

Am   G  Fadd9
nicer than that

(Break) - Cadd9 the whole time. I fingerpick it personally.

Fadd9
with my foot on your neck

I finally have you right where I want you right where I want you right where I want you right where I want you

C
I guess it's ok I puked the day away

Am
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way (your own way)

Fadd9
and if you want me back

G
you're gonna have to ask

G (Fingerpicked until the end) nicer than that (I guess it's ok I puked the day away) nicer than that (I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way) and if you want me back you're gonna have to ask nicer than that nicer nicer
