F*, C*, and G* are all the normal chords/ way to play the chords
These chords are correct. The Dm drops the minor third to the suspended second halfway through in verse chords.
Same with the G adding the seventh, but pull off at the end, before the switch to C.
Intro:
Cadd9 F6 Cadd9 F6
Cadd9 F6 Dm > Dsus2 G > G7
Verse:
Cadd9 F6
Well some may say it's not even funny
Dm Dsus2 G G7
And there you stand not even trying
Cadd9 F6
They say it is in line with the aging
Dm Dsus2 G G7
Sometimes noise is just your mind
F* C* G*
But the lesson is vague in the light now
F* C* G*
Shows a deer with her mind on the moor
Cadd9 F6
And now something with the sun is just different
Dm G
Since they shook the earth in 1904
(Break):
Cadd9 F6 Dm > Dsus2 G > G7 x 2
Verse:
Cadd9 F6 (Broken Strumming)
And as I lowered down I hear it's a message
Dm Dsus2 G G7
And it's 1902 just telling people to get out
Cadd9 F6
And if there was just a way I could tell them
Dm Dsus2 G G7
It's been long but you are right
F* C* G*
And the singing is slow and so quiet
F* C* G*
Like the sound when you sweep up the floor
Cadd9 F6
And now something with the dirt is just different
Dm G
Since they shook the earth in 1904
(Break):
Cadd9 F6 Dm > Dsus2 G > G7 x 2
Bridge:
Em* F* The (*)'s here signify normal chords
And when the night is young but the bridge is up
Am* F*
Something passing by, I was sure
Em* F*
And the only one you can tell it to
Am* G*
Well it's the only one that ever knows
Verse:
Cadd9 F6 (Broken Strumming)
And since more robbers made to go through my window
Dm Dsus2 G G7
I hear something so strange and something louder than before
Cadd9 F6
And you're living with no light or direction
Dm Dm7 G G7
But damn precise and now you know
F* C* G*
When believing is hard but you go now
F* C* G*
And you feel what you drag 'cross the floor
Cadd9 F6
Because something with these drills are just different
Dm G7
Since they shook the earth in 1904
Cadd9 F6 Dm > Dsus2 G > G7
Bridge:
Em* F*
And when the night is young but the bridge is up
Am* F*
Somethings passing by, I was sure
Em* F*
And the only one you can tell it to
Am* G*
Well it's the only one that ever knows
Cadd9 F6 (Broken strumming)
And some will say it's not even healthy
Dm Dsus2 G (NO G7)
But body is young and mind is sure
Cadd9 F6
That something is alright with your thinking
Dm G C*
Since they shook the earth in 1904
