This is just how I play it. It’s not exact but oh well, you can make it your own. The
intro is a just a simplified version of the verse. Hopefully you find this enjoyable and
closer than the others.

G Cmaj7
Time for the final bow,
G Cmaj7
Rows of deserted houses,
G G/F# Em
All our stable mates highway bound.
G Cmaj7
Give us our measly sum,
G Cmaj7 G G/F#
Getting the air inside my lungs is heavenly,
Em G G/F# Em
Starting out, with nothing but crippling doubt.
C D Em G x2
C D Em G C D G
We'll rest easy, jus-ti-fied.
G Cmaj7
Suffered a swift defeat,
G Cmaj7
I’ll endure countless repeats,
G G/F# Em
The gift of memory's an awful curse,
G G/F# Em
With age it just gets much worse,
D C G Em
But I won't mind,
D C G Em
I won't mind,
D C G Em
I won't mind,
D C G
I won't mind.
Then something like the verse, and you're done
