Capo 1

Intro
Am - F - C - G
            Hey!
Am - F - C - G
            Hey!
Am - F - C - G
            Hey!
Am - F - C - G

Verse 1
Am               F                C                  
I don't like walking around this old and empty house
    Am                 F                C
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear
     Am           F           C
The stairs creak as I sleep, it's keeping me awake
          Am            F                 C
It's the house telling you to close your eyes
Am           F        C
Some days I can't even trust myself
       Am           F            C
It's killing me to see you this way

Chorus
                   Am        F         
'Cause though the truth may vary
    C           G
This ship will carry
      Am    F        C 
Our bodies safe to shore

Am - F - C - G
            Hey!
Am - F - C - G
            Hey!

Verse 2
            Am          F            C                  
There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back
Am               F                C
Tell her that I miss our little talks
Am                F         C
Soon it will be over and buried with our past
    Am             F                   C
We used to play outside when we were young (and full of life and full of love)
Am           F           C
Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right
      Am               F               C
Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear

Chorus
                   Am        F         
'Cause though the truth may vary
    C           G
This ship will carry
      Am    F        C     G
Our bodies safe to shore  Hey!
Am                  F    C     G
Don't listen to a word I say. Hey!
Am                 F       C     G
The screams all sound the same. Hey!
                   Am        F         
'Cause though the truth may vary
    C           G
This ship will carry
      Am    F        C     G
Our bodies safe to shore 

Am - F - C - G
Am - F - C - G
Am - F - C - G
Am - F - C

Verse 3
Am
You're gone, gone, gone away. I watched you disappear
Am 
All that's left is a ghost of you
           Am
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart, there's nothing we can do. 
     Am
Just let me go, we'll meet again soon.
    Am           F              C 
Now wait, wait, wait for me. Please hang around
  Am       F            C      G
I see you when I fall asleep. Hey!

Chorus x 2
Am                  F    C     G

The screams all sound the same. Hey!

'Cause though the truth may vary
    C           G
This ship will carry
      Am    F        C     G
Our bodies safe to shore 

Ending x 2
                   Am        F         
'Cause though the truth may vary
       C         G
This ship will carry
      Am     F       C 
Our bodies safe to shore

Capo isnt really necessary. You can just play it with all normal barre chords half a step up.
