Listen to the song for strumming and timing. The parentheses is only played the second time.

Use barre chords for the rest of the song. I didn't tab out the lead guitar.

                E             B
Don't let them break you.
                 A               A
Don't let them tell you who you are.
                          E            B
Doesn't matter where you come from,
                       A                 A
you'll always have a floor to sleep on.
                     E
And you have your bamboo bones,
   B
nervous energy,
   A
blind ambition,
 A
skin of your teeth.
      E                     B
Push back, push back, push back,
                            A
with every word and every breath.

     Dbm           A
What god doesn't give to you,
              E                B
you've got to go and get for yourself.

                     E
I'm embarrassed to admit it,
 B
I've got no grip.
      A              A
I'm leading with my jaw.
                         E
Can you see it from a distance?
                B
Does it look ridiculous?
                A                        A
I guess that's just what I have to live with.
                E
Still I have a mind to think,
  B
knees to break,
       A            A
you standing beside me.
                   E                     B
I'm going to push back, push back, push back,
                           A
with every word and every breath.

     Dbm          A
What god doesn't give to you,
              E                   B
you've got to go and get for yourself.
