There are two versions I play this song:
1) Using 1 downstroke for the whole chord and 2 upstrokes just on the bottom
string for each chord. In this case I play "Dm Am E Am" as shown below
2) Using the palm to mute after each chord, and substituting every first "Am" with
a fast "Dm Am" and every secon "Am" with a fast "E Am". This way every line has
"Dm - - Dm Am - - - E - - E Am"
Intro:
Dm Am E Am x4
.::Verse::.
Dm Am E Am
I took the perfect avenue, down the road to both of you
Dm Am E Am
Did I go dutch? This is too much!
Dm Am E Am
With all the money in the world, you could never buy this girl
Dm Am E Am
Quite enough, it will be tough
Dm Am E Am
If romancing me with neons is something you should do
Dm Am E [hold]
May the letters write in luminous, in-lou
.::Chorus::.
Dm Am E Am
And get me wicked up, shake it up, tangled up
Dm Am E Am
You could be breaking up, making up, tangled up
Dm Am E Am
You can’t be faking it, Making it from my love
Dm Am E Am
With all this tragedy, don’t get me tangled up
Dm Am E Am x2

.::Verse::.
Dm Am E Am
I can’t separate your sins, to me you’re acting like you’re twins
Dm Am E Am
This is a mess, is this a test?
Dm Am E Am
How many guesses do I get till only one of you is left?
Dm Am E Am
You’re quite the same, if love’s the gain
Dm Am E Am
I want to see emotions coloring the sky
Dm Am E [hold]
to the point it will make me wanna cry
.::Chorus::.
Dm Am E Am
And get me wicked up, shake it up, tangled up
Dm Am E Am
You could be breaking up, making up, tangled up
Dm Am E Am
You can’t be faking it, Making it from my love
Dm Am E Am
With all this tragedy, don’t get me tangled up
Dm Am E Am x2
.::Bridge::.
Am E Em Dm
Treating girls like a yo-yo is a no no of monumental kind
Am E
If playing with your string happens to be your thing
Em E
It’s easy to say to both, oh never mind
.::Chorus::.
Dm Am E Am
And get me wicked up, shake it up, tangled up
Dm Am E Am
You could be breaking up, making up, tangled up
Dm Am E Am
You can’t be faking it, Making it from my love
Dm Am E Am
With all this tragedy, don’t get me tangled up
.::Ending::.
Dm Am E Am
Tangled up x3
