Here is the masterpiece of "AM". The chords are based on the first covers posted
on Youtube. Any correction is welcome, although it should be 100% correct.
The rhythm is U-D U-D U-U-U-D for the verse. You can keep it for the chorus and
the bridge or switch to U-D U-D U-D U-D to fit with the drums. It is not palm-muted.

Dm
I can’t explain but I want to try
There’s this image of you and I
Bb Gm Dm
And it goes dancing by in the morning and in the night time
Dm
There’s all these secrets that I can’t keep
Like in my heart there’s that hotel suite
Bb Gm Dm
And you lived there so long, it’s kinda strange now you’re gone
Bb Gm
I’m not sure if I should show you what I’ve found
Bb Gm
Has it gone for good or is it coming back around?
Bb
Isn’t it hard to make up your mind
Gm Dm
When you’re losing and your fuse is fireside
Dm
There’s all those places we used to go
And I suspect you already know
Bb
But that place on Memory Lane you liked
Gm Dm
Still looks the same but something about it’s changed

Bb Gm
I’m not sure if I should show you what I’ve found
Bb Gm
Has it gone for good or is it coming back around?
Bb
Isn’t it hard to make up your mind
Gm Dm
When you’re losing and your fuse is fireside
Bb(riff 1) Gm Bb
And I thought I was yours forever
Gm
Maybe I was mistaken
Bb
But I just cannot manage to make it through the day
Gm Dm
Without thinking of you lately
Solo: (refer to the song for the rhythm. There may be other notes, but i'm not
sure if it is the guitar playing. Same chords and rhythm as the verse)
