The first thing played is done in an open tuning with a slide,
but since the rest of the song isn't, I just play:

E----------|
B---/12----|
G---/9-----|
D---/9-----|
A----------|
E----------|

   E5                         D5
E----------------------------------------------------------|
B----------------------------------------------------------|
G--9--9--7-9-7-9--9-9-9-9-8-8-7--7--5-7-5-7--7-7-77778888--|
D--9--9--7-9-7-9--9-9-9-9-8-8-7--7--5-7-5-7--7-7-77778888--|
A--7--7--5-7-5-7--7-7-7-7-6-6-5--5--3-5-3-5--5-5-55556666--|
E----------------------------------------------------------|

Just be creative with the strumming pattern.


E D E D

E                    D                               E
We're in the movies, watching some people move their mouths
      D                 E                            D
And a religious figure, who's not really a religious figure
              E         D
Cause he's an actor
E                      D
We feel okay, which is how we feel most of the time, now
E                       D
Nothing can be done without the willingness
   E          D
To succeed

E                     D     
Let's go to the opera since 
E                                 D
All of our favorite memories have failed us

E                    D
You make the choice, you make the choice,
E                    D
You make the choice, you make the choice

(no guitar for this gap)
E D E D

E                    D
Historic properties, historic places
E                   D
The next generation lost in a sea of faces
E                              D
There's no hope for generating electricity
E             D
No sidewalks, I just need some kicks

E                    D
You make the choice, you make the choice,
E                    D
You make the choice, you make the choice

E D E D, end on E
