This is a response to a request for a simple chord version of this song. I tried
to make it as simple as possible so don't hate me if its missing some details.

*note - G/Eb = [3 6 5 x x x] since I didn't know what else to call it

Bridge - Basically just play around on Cm, but I can hear the bass hitting F and
Ab also so this is how I play it

Final Verse
The (Gm) is optional if you have another guitar or bass that can hit it
Cm Bb(Gm) Ab Fm I drug my heart with doublespeak, Cm Bb(Gm) Ab Fm All my misgivings disappear Cm Bb(Gm) It helps to keep my conscience clean Ab Fm The ends will justify the means Cm Bb(Gm) Ab Fm But still I'm always careful what I hear
Continue with that progression and end on Cm
