these are the exact chords played in the song ,
but i like the whole G , Cadd9 type of sound to acoustic songs .
so i redid the chords a little to my liking .
and since this song is in the key of “g” these chords sound really nice .
hope you like it ( :
also , one little note on the chorus .
in the real song when he plays the “g” and then the octave ,
i sortof do the same thing on the acoustic .
i’ll play the G chord , and then when the octave is played
in the song i just strum the top two strings
to get that octave type sound . hope this helps .

( intro )
G , Em , Cadd9 , D
( verse )
G
you almost always pick the best times
Em
to drop the worst lines
Cadd9
you almost made me cry again this time
D
another false alarm
red flashing lights
G
well this time i’m not going to watch myself die
G
i think i made it a game to play your game
Em
and let myself cry
Cadd9
i buried myself alive on the inside
D
so i could shut you out
G
and let you go away for a long time
( chorus )
G
i guess it’s ok i puked the day away
Em Cadd9
i guess it’s better you trapped yourself in your own way
D
and if you want me back
G
you’re gonna have to ask
( verse )
G
i think the chain broke away
Em
and i felt it the day that i had my own time
Cadd9
i took advantage of myself and felt fine
D
but it was worth the night
G
i caught an early flight and i made it home
( chorus )
G
i guess it’s ok i puked the day away
Em
i guess it’s better you trapped yourself in your own way
Cadd9
and if you want me back
D
you’re gonna have to ask
Em D Cadd9
nicer than that
Em D Cadd9
nicer than that
( break ) – Cadd9 the whole time . i fingerpick it personally .
Cadd9
with my foot on your neck
i finally have you
right where i want you
right where i want you
right where i want you
right where i want you
G
i guess it’s ok i puked the day away
Em
i guess it’s better you trapped yourself in your own way ( your own way )
Cadd9
and if you want me back
D
you’re gonna have to ask
G ( fingerpicked until the end )
nicer than that ( i guess it’s ok i puked the day away )
nicer than that ( i guess it’s better you trapped yourself in your own way )
and if you want me back
you’re gonna have to ask
nicer than that
