Note this is obviously not played on guitar in the actual version – and to play the last
of the intro essentially play a D chord but slid up 2 frets so you’re playing 454xxx –
can play the bottom E open optionally
VERSE 1:
D A F#m E D
We’ll wait in line for most our lives.
A F#m E D
Get out, get in, get on with it.
A F#m E D
We always hurt the ones we never really love.
A F#m E D
We always think we’re all alone, we’re always...
A F#m E D
Wrong... We’re always...
A F#m E
Wrong...
CHORUS:
D E A
The words we say
D E A
Take diff’rent shapes.

VERSE 2:
D A F#m E D
We’ll live and die with all the things we recognize.
A F#m E D
We’ll count our sins. Stop now. Begin.
A F#m E D
We know the words are better left unspoken when
A F#m E D
They’ll be right in to tear the heads off of us.
A F#m E D
Oooh... tear the heads off of us.
A F#m E D
Oooh...
(CHORUS)

And you can only do so much
G A D
To try and get your point across...
D A F#m E (x4)
ENDING:
No Guitar – but essentially it is still playing over the same chords which I have but in
(not actually played on the record – but if you want to play them till the end then
they are)
(D) (A) (F#m) (E) (D)
I’ll live and die with all the things I recognize.
(A) (F#m) (E) (D)
I’ll count our sins Stop now Begin
