I noticed that not one of these chord sheets had all the lyrics, or the right chords. 
This song has the EASIEST strum pattern in the world. 
Listen to the song off of the "Acoustic EP" to get the pattern.
This is 100% correct.



C# minor  G# major   A major   B major
[5---------4---------5---------6]
[5---------4---------5---------6] 
[6---------5---------6---------7]
[6---------6---------7---------8]
[4---------6---------7---------8]
[x---------4---------5---------6]

During the chorus it's like this:
 A                                         B

[Verse 1]
        C#m           G#
Tell me how could you compromise
    A         B
Yourself like this?
        C#m                 G#
Tell me how could you blame anyone else
         A             B
When you aren't really committed?
        C#m            G#
Tell me where was your head
                    A              B
When you broke that promise to yourself,
                  C#m      G#
The one where you don't forget
           A                     B
Every life lesson that happens before your eyes
       G#                                       C#m
So you don't wake up to regret she's gone years away?
                  G# 
You had hopes and dreams of a day
                                                    C#m
Where everything, everything, everything would come together,

You wouldn't have to be so scared.

[Chorus]
            A                                        B
Are we just working till a day we decide we've had enough?

All along we were strong enough to be sick of it,
    A
And put them back in their fucking place.
                                   B    
Never asked for this responsibility
                          G#
We were never in this.. together.

[Verse 2]
    C#m              G#
The reality that you know
          A          B
Is just behind your idea
       C#m      G#          A       B
Of a society, security, and self.
          C#m                G#
Am I just fucked up? Cause I can't remember
    A                          B 
The last time any of this made sense,
    C#m       G#
The last time I
        A           B
Could stand up to myself.
       G#
Street faces all blend into one,
                    C#m
They ask for spare change.
        G#
Am I forgetting what it looks like from the other side?
                                 C#m
Have I forgotten where I've come from?

[Chorus]
A                                                    B
Are we just working till a day we decide we've had enough?

All along we were strong enough to be sick of it,
    G#
And put them back in their fucking place.
A                                  B
Never asked for this responsibility
                          G#
We were never in this.. together.
