Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

The chords he uses are just , , Cadd2 and /.

I use the add2 cos it's much easier to get to the / from it in the chorus, but

they both sound ok You can play the proper open C but it's a lot easier to use

these the Cadd2 and these ones:

e: 0 0 0 (2) (but I just leave it open or mute it)

Then for his little intro riff (and pretty much whenever he plays a G) he just

plays the G and does this:

e:-0-0-

B:-3-3-

G:-0-0-

D:-0-0-

A:-0h2-

E:-3-3-

And then strums the G and fiddles the high strings. Most of the melody comes from the bass.

With the lyrics now:

Verse

If nothing ever really dies then

why do I feel barely alive?

If we're only living for second tries then

baby surely I should spend the night

Chorus

You should speak your mind,

and I could be a nicer guy

If I tried

You could be just fine,

hanging on those lines

but I would die

before I let you take me alive

Bridge

(Just C and G, and sometimes he does the hammer-on on the )

And I'd give anything

To wake up next to you again

Then it's just the chorus again...
