Capo 4

For the strumming use a simple base-strum down-up style. Listen to the song for what 
best.

To get it to sound more like the song, I do a hammer-on for the next note after the base
So for G chord I hammer on 2nd fret on A string with 1st finger. For Dsus4/F# hammer on
fret on G string with 2nd finger, etc. So you hammer on right after plucking the base 
and before the strum. Don't do this for D and Em, just strum regularly.

Chords used:
Em7		Dsus4/F#
022033		200233


Intro:
G	Dsus4/F#	Em7	D	Em
G	Dsus4/F#	Em7	D	D

Verse:
      G       Dsus4/F#     Em7     D       Em
Oh it takes   my           life    away
   G         Dsus4/F#      Em7       D     Em
To think     of	           her    as gone
       G  Dsus4/F#       Em7      D        Em
Now Im running	         down the maze
        G  Dsus4/F#      Em7    D          D
And Im  finding	         only   war

G  Dsus4/F#         Em7      D	           Em
Blowing             down the flame
   G         Dsus4/F#        Em7     D	   Em
To catch     the             burning wind
        G  Dsus4/F#    Em7    D	           Em
Now Im  running	       out of steam
    G     Dsus4/F#   Em7        D          D
Now watch this 	     man        collapse


Chorus:
D            Em	            D
You said you wanted a better life
             Em           D
And you will tell me what you find
              G      Dsus4/F#    Em7
         Em
And then Ill  stay   the         whole night through
         G      Dsus4/F#       Em7       D
       	Em
And Ill  turn   from           sad to    blue
          G  Dsus4/F#    Em7     D
           Em
Yes Im    choking        after   you
         G  Dsus4/F#     Em7       D
        D
Yeah Im  choking         after     you

Verse: (same as verse 1)
Wish you�d think of me
The way I think of you
Well I find it hard to breathe
Cause now I know the truth

So what good would fingers be
If it weren�t for diamond rings?
Now I know you�re leaving me
And I know that I�m no king

Chorus: (same)
And you said you wanted a better life
And you will tell me oh what you find
And then I stay the whole night through
And I turn from sad to blue
Yeah I�m choking after you
Miss, I�m choking now, do you?

Go ahead now, tell them all about it

(Solo plays here, strum chorus in the background)

Verse:
So what good would fingers be
If it weren�t for diamond rings?
Now I know you�re leaving me
And I know that I�m no king
