[ch]B/E[/ch] |024440| (optional flourish in bridge)
I'm not sure why all the chords posted on this one have been so off (especially
for the bridge) when the song is so incredibly straightforward, but I believe this
to be far more accurate to the album.
About the only tricky part at all is in the bridge after "and I don't need to know
your stories". There's an option there to add a B/E chord, and I recommend doing
so if you can get it down. This is easily accomplished with tapping on and off
the b string by playing the Esus2 chord above with the following fingering:
a string, index
d string, middle
g string, ring
b string, pinky
I know that sounds complex, but if you listen to the album, the timing is very
easy and the fingering isn't difficult once you get it down. Enjoy!
INTRO: E6, Esus2, E5 (x4)
-VERSE 1-
E6 Esus2 E5
Now you don't have a purpose
E6 Esus2 E5
You don't let anybody in
E6 Esus2 E5
You don't understand why she don't love you
E6 Esus2 E5
But you don't understand yourself
E6 Esus2 E5
Now you're out there with no target
E6 Esus2 E5
So your friends become your aim
E6 Esus2 E5
But there is no one left around you
E6 Esus2 E5
So there is no one left to blame
-CHORUS-
[ch]A5/E[/ch] E
And what you don't know, it won't hurt you
[ch]A5/E[/ch] E
And what you don't know will save you from some pain
E6 Esus2 E5
But if I could choose, oh, I'd let it hurt you
E6 Esus2 E5
Cause there's something 'bout life in the pain
-VERSE 2-
E6 Esus2 E5
Now there's something inside you stirring
E6 Esus2 E5
Like there's a fight coming your way

E6 Esus2 E5
But there'll be no fists you'll be throwing
E6 Esus2 E5
Just some words you've got to say
E6 Esus2 E5
And you'll scream for our repentance
E6 Esus2 E5
Or you'll hide behind what's fake
E6 Esus2 E5
But there ain't nothing to forgiveness
E6 Esus2 E5
You give as freely as you take
-CHORUS-
[ch]A5/E[/ch] E
And what you don't know, it won't hurt you
[ch]A5/E[/ch] E
And what you don't know will save you from some pain
E6 Esus2 E5
But if I could choose, oh, I'd let it hurt you
E6 Esus2 E5
Cause there's something 'bout life in the pain

[ch]A5/E[/ch] E6 E5 E5,[ch]B/E[/ch],E5,[ch]B/E[/ch],E5
Cause I've been here since the beginning
[ch]A5/E[/ch] E6 E5
And I'll be here the rest of the way

And I'll be here the rest of the way
-VERSE 3-

Now you've tried your hand at running

But it is right before you break
