So I've played this along with the song a few times, and I'm pretty sure this is
right. Since the chords remain the same throughout most of the song, except for
the bridge, I'd recommend separating the chorus from the verses by muting the
chords on the verses, considering that the verses are originally bass only.
CAPO III
Intro: Em C G D
(9liiiiivvvveeees... Deuce, let's go)
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I'm supposed to be the one who brings us all together
Em C
Weak or strong, not just a song
G D
We sing along when things go wrong
Em C
You will need me when you fall
G D
And I will need you when I'm wrong
Em
Tears lead me on
C G
They let me lead you so far
D Em C G D
Weak or strong, I'll hold your arm
[Verse]
Em
I see the sickness in the signs
C
The dead weight in line
G
Like the sickness in my mind
D
Homosexuals and liars
Em
Fuck playing for reasons
C
Fuck playing for Jesus
G D
Let me shine like a god, like a leader
Em C
I'll burn a hole through your cross
G
My soul's already lost
D
And it's funny 'cuz they're saying "he's hot"
Em C
But they don't see the fucking tears that I've cried
G D
And they don't hear me when I scream when I die
Em C
I wanna live good, I wanna live right
G D
My insecurities are eatin' me alive
Em C
I need a friend, someone close to my heart
G
That'll help me through my struggles
D
You can help me through my times
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I'm supposed to be the one who brings us all together
Em C
Weak or strong, not just a song
G D
We sing along when things go wrong
Em C
You will need me when you fall
G D
And I will need you when I'm wrong
Em
Tears lead me on
C G
They let me lead you so far
D Em C G D
Weak or strong, I'll hold your arm

[Verse]
Em C
I already found the devil, he's my best friend
G D
He taught me how to leave, but I don't wanna end
Em C
I want a pill for every bad thought
G
For every chick I fucked
D
For every time I lost
Em C
Don't think I'm broken, 'cuz I'm not
G
Got milk? Got problems?
D
Problems is all that I got
Em C
You're looking down on a barrel of a bent pole
G D
Take my hand, I promise that I'll go slow
Em C
When you looked too close you end up with a broke soul
G D
'Cuz in the end it's certain where all the souls go
Em C
Maybe you can show me how to live right
G D
And come see how it all ends wrong
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I'm supposed to be the one who brings us all together
Em C
Weak or strong, not just a song
G D
We sing along when things go wrong
Em C
You will need me when you fall
G D
And I will need you when I'm wrong
Em
Tears lead me on
C G
They let me lead you so far
D Em
Weak or strong, I'll hold your arm
[Bridge]
Em B
I'll take you to a place so warm
C A
Like the insides of a baby unborn
Em B
The bible keeps telling me "Don't go!"
C A
They don't know what I know, what?
Em B
You won't reap what I sew, what?
C A
You won't cease when I blow, yup!
Em B
I won't leave when you go, nope!
C A
Come with me, let us go home
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I'm supposed to be the one who brings us all together

You will need me when you fall
G D
And I will need you when I'm wrong
Em
Tears lead me on
C G
They let me lead you so far
D Em
Weak or strong, I'll hold your arm
