I tried to put the chords above the corresponding lyrics, so you need to listen
carefully to the song for the timing.
Before the verse starts a quick slidfe from A G is played, then:
Verse:
E Emaj9
Everyone knows the baby's unhappy
E7sus2 A
Another day in paradise
Am E
In a world where you never grow old
Bm7 slide from A to G
Warms my bones and melts the ice
Same chords progression for the next verse:
So whats wrong, with my best friend
If to me her hand was lent
It's all bringing me down
It's not alright
Chorus:
E B D
Hold on tighter to the friends that you made
A E
And the life that you once knew
B D A
She's not mine, and I won't change one thing
E
You gotta move in line
B D A slide from A tot G
She's not mine, and I won't change one thing
Verse, same chords progression:
Mother dear, oh I am so sorry
Father friend, I feel so bad
Brother tried and failed to hate me
Even if he raised his hand
Sister sister, please don't wake me
Won't you please try understand?
These things just seem to overtake me
Self indulgence, not the plan
Chorus, same chord progression:
Hold on tighter to the friends that you made
And the life that you once knew
She's not mine, and I won't change one thing
I gotta move in line
She's not mine, and I won't change one thing
Bridge/solo:
When the solo starts the following notes/chords are played by the bass, you can
play them as power chords starting with an E chord on the first fret. From the G
chord you need to chromatically run back to the E chord. Maybe I'll tab the solo
later on.
E* F F# [G* F# F E*]
Then the chords of the verse are played again, after that: E* F F# G* F# F E*
Outro same chord progression as the chorus:
And I wish I never shook your hand
And I wish I never shook your hand
Oh I wish I'd never shook your hand
Oh I wish I'd never shook your hand
Oh I wish I'd never shook your hand
End with:
E* F F# [G* F# F E*]
