Tuning: Standard

Verse Chords: Bm7, A/Bm7, E/G#, A#dim? (this is different from the dim chord in the
bridge and chorus), Bm, A
Notes: Note that the chord changes are one beat before the next line in the verse (see below).

  Bm7  A/Bm7  E/G# A#dim?
---2-----2-----0-----X-----|
---3-----3-----0-----X-----|

-----INTRO RIFF-----
Notes: This doesn't have to be played, but I would just listen to the song to get the
rhythm.  This is also played during the Chorus, but is not necessary since we are
already voicing the chords.

e|---X-X-X-5->7-X-X-5---7------X-X-X-5->7-X-X-5---7------------|
B|---------5->7-----5---7------X-X-X-5->7-X-X-5---7------------|
G|-------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------|

Repeat as necessary.

-----VERSE 1 lyrics Bm7--> (a beat before "Wake up")-----
                             A/Bm7
Wake up with blood-shot eyes,
                      E/G#
Struggled to memorize,
                                    A#dim?
The way it felt between your thighs,
                               Bm7
The pleasure that made you cry.
                        A/Bm7
Feels so good to be bad,
                        E/G#
Not worth the aftermath,

After that,
           A#dim?               
After that,     
                      Bm, A
Try to get you back,

Pre-Chorus 1 and 2 Chords: Gadd9, A(bar), Bm, A, A#dim, Bm7(bar)

  Gadd9  A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
----3------5------X-------7-----|
----0------5------X-------7-----|
----2------6------6-------7-----|
----0------7------8-------7-----|
----0------7------7-------9-----|
----3------5------6-------7-----|

-----PRE-CHORUS 1 lyrics----- 
  Gadd9                 A(bar)
I still don't have a reason,
    Gadd9              A(bar)  Bm, A
And you don't have the time,
       Gadd9
And it really makes me wonder,
     A(bar)      A#dim      Bm7(bar)
If I ever gave a fuck about you.

Chorus 1 and 2 Chords: A(bar), Em, F#(bar), A#dim, Bm7(bar), Gmaj7, F#7

  Gmaj7   F#7
----X------2-----|
----3------2-----|
----4------3-----|
----5------2-----|
----X------4-----|
----3------2-----|

-----CHORUS 1 lyrics-----
                       A(bar)
Give me somethin' to believe in,
        Em                      F#(bar)  A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore,
               A(bar)                     Gmaj7
I wonder if it even makes a difference to try,
      F#7
Yeah, so this is goodbye.

-----VERSE 2 lyrics Bm7--> (a beat before "God damn")-----
                          A/Bm7
God damn my spinnin' head,
                           E/G#
Decisions that made my bed,
                         A#dim?
Now I must lay in it and,
                                  Bm7
Deal with things I've left unsaid.
                        A/Bm7
I want to dive into you,
                                
Forget what we're goin' through,
  E/G#
I get behind,
                             
Make you move,     
   A#dim?                Bm, A
Forget about the truth,

-----PRE-CHORUS 2 lyrics----- 
      Gadd9                 A(bar)
And I still don't have a reason,
    Gadd9              A(bar)  Bm, A
And you don't have the time,
       Gadd9
And it really makes me wonder,
     A(bar)      A#dim      Bm7(bar)
If I ever gave a fuck about you.

-----CHORUS 2 lyrics-----
                       A(bar)
Give me somethin' to believe in,
        Em                      F#(bar)  A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore,
               A(bar)                      Gmaj7                         F#7 
I wonder if it even makes a difference to (it even makes a difference to try, 
A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
yeah),
                           A(bar)
And you told me how you're feelin',
      Em                         F#(bar)  A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
But I don't believe it's true anymore, anymore,
               A(bar)                     Gmaj7
I wonder if it even makes a difference to cry (oh, no),
F#7
So this is goodbye (haaa!).

-----BRIDGE lyrics-----
Gmaj7                 F#m
I've been here before,
                            F#/A#           1     2   3   4   Gmaj7
One day I'll wake up and it won't hurt any (more, oh, oh, oh, oh).
                       F#m
You caught me in a lie,
                F#/A#
I have no alibi,
                               5  6     7     8
The words you say don't have a meaning 'cause I,

-----PRE-CHORUS 3 lyrics----- 
Gadd9                 A(bar)
Still don't have a reason,
    Gadd9              A(bar)  Bm, A
And you don't have the time,
       Gadd9
And it really makes me wonder,
     A(bar)                 F(bar)
If I ever gave a fuck about you and I,
    F7(bar)            Bm7(bar)
And so this is goodbye.

-----CHORUS 3 lyrics-----
                       A(bar)
Give me somethin' to believe in,
        Em                      F#(bar)  A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore,
               A(bar)                      Gmaj7                         F#7 
I wonder if it even makes a difference to (it even makes a difference to try, 
A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
yeah),
                           A(bar)
And you told me how you're feelin',
      Em                         F#(bar)  A(bar)  A#dim  Bm7(bar)
But I don't believe it's true anymore, anymore,
               A(bar)                     Gmaj7
I wonder if it even makes a difference to cry (oh, no),
F#7               Bm7        A/Bm7
So this is goodbye  (oh, no),
                        E/G#       A#dim
Yeah, so this is goodbye  (oh, no),
                        Bm7        A/Bm7
Yeah, so this is goodbye  (oh, no),
                        E/G#
Yeah, so this is goodbye

End on A#dim.
