My Wrecking Ball
Capo 4 (all chords relative)
Great song off the new album.
I play the C as a C/G and the G as a technically a G6add11 below in the diagram.
Play the Fmaj7 in the verses and chorus with your thumb on the bass note (see chord diagram).
Sounds good if you add a few embellishments such as hammer ons etc.

Driving through the streets tonight
G Am
It's hot I've got the windows down

Nothing much left in the tank

Lying in the bed at night
G Am
Feeling like I'm somebody else
Fmaj7 C G
My thoughts inside my head get lost inside the haunted house

Everyone I used to know

Left their dreams by the door
Fmaj7 C G
I accidentally kick em thats how I can tell you're still not sure

And all the walls we built they rise and they fall
