So this is my version of the chords, as I didn't find the others here as helpful as my
own was. This song is originally from Fmaj7 but it's easier for me to sing and play it
from Dmaj7. I'm not totally sure about the Bm at the end of the bridge, but I
think it fits there quite well.
Chorus:
Dmaj7 A E
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
Dmaj7 A
You could cut ties with all the lies,
E
That you've been living in,
Dmaj7 A E
And if you do not want to see me again,
Dmaj7 A E
I would understand.
Dmaj7 A E
I would understand.
Verse 1:
F#m (hold)
The angry boy,
A bit too insane,
A (hold)
Icing over a secret pain
E (hold) (start strumming)
You know you don't belong.
F#m (hold)
You're the first to fight,
You're way too loud,
A (hold)
You're The flash of light,
On a burial shroud,
E (hold) (start strumming)
I know something's wrong
Bridge:
F#m Bm
Well everyone I know has got a reason,
A (hold)
To say,
E
You can put the past away
Chorus:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/third_eye_blind/jumper_crd_ver_8.html ]
Dmaj7 A E
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
Dmaj7 A
You could cut ties with all the lies,
E
That you've been living in,
Dmaj7 A E
And if you do not want to see me again,
Dmaj7 A E
I would understand.
Dmaj7 A E
I would understand.
Verse 2:
F#m (hold)
And well he's on the table,
And he's gone to code,
A (hold) E (hold)
And I do not think that anyone knows,
(start strumming)
What they are doing here,
F#m (hold)
And your friends have left you,
You've been dismissed.
A (hold
I never thought it would come to this,
E (hold) (start strumming)
And I, I want you to know
Bridge:
F#m Bm
Everyone has got to face down the demons,
A
Maybe today,
E
We can put the past away,
Chorus:
Dmaj7 A E
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
Dmaj7 A
You could cut ties with all the lies,
E
That you've been living in,
Dmaj7 A E
And if you do not want to see me again,
Dmaj7 A E
I would understand.
Dmaj7 A E
I would understand.
And then the chorus a couple of times more with some variations in the singing, you can
listen their song at YouTube if you want to learn them (they are quite easy).
