You'll have to listen to the song while you're practicing to fully understand how to
play it. THE VERSE IS PLAYED IN 4/4 TIMING where as THE BRIDGE AND CHORUS ARE PLAYED IN
3/4 TIMING, so you need a good enough understanding of music theory to play the song.
C (palm mute and pluck throughout the verse at a steady pace)
I'm gonna take a stab at this
sure you will be alright
make a decision with a kiss
baby I have false spite
(The bridge is pretty straight forward, just remember that it is in 3/4 timing!)
Dm G
And when I trek alone back home
Dm G
I make sure I trek in the snow
Dm
Would I fall?
C (same as verse before)
Tissue and bones, it was a trick
this isn't a gun-fight
checking it off of my list
unable to rewrite
(Bridge, same as before)

Dm G
Five years cast once and far alone
Dm G
hope I'm ready, able to make my own
Dm
Goodbye
(For this part, the chorus, you play the Dm for 2 bars, as well as the Am and G. This
part is also in 3/4 timing.)
Repeat 4 times
Am
They go, we go
G
I want you to know
Dm
what I did, I did
(For this next part play the Dm for 4 bars, and the Am and G for 2).
Am G Dm, Am G Dm
(repeat chorus twice, the second time you play Dm for 4 bars).
Am
They go, we go
G
I want you to know
Dm
what I did, I did
After the last chorus is a play off using the chords from the chorus (in that same order).
I prefer to end on a Dm because it sounds jazzy, and it fits nicely, but go ahead and
end on Am if you like.
