Intro:
F# A E x2
Verse:
F# A E
Start the day against the voices
F# A D
The ones that tell me that I'm wrong
Bm F# E
I hear them now, screaming their delusions
Bm F# D
I close my eyes, and they're gone
Pre-Chorus:
Am
If they ain't singing,

F#
Let them keep talking to themselves
D
'Cause everybody knows,
Chorus:
Am
The hardest war to fight
E

F#

D (Strum only once in 1st chorus, continue to strum in others)
Turn you into someone else
Interlude:
F# A E x2
Verse:
Same chords
Start the road against the voices,
I pick a path out in the woods,
I made mistakes, I got the scars to prove them
I'd change the past if i could.
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Bridge:
This part's tricky. The first couple chords, you strike twice and mute, then go
to the next one. It would really help to watch a video while learning this part.
F# C#m (D* A/C# Bm* A*) whole thing x3
Chords in parentheses are only struck twice before moving on.
F# C#m D* Dmaj7 D
Pre-Chorus, end D play with high e string to change sound like Jon does every two strokes
Chorus til end
There you go! That's how i play it, and it sounds right to me.
