Notes:
------
When you play a D chord, it's usually always followed by a Dsus4 then back to D, eg:
E|-2-2-3---3-2---|
B|-3-3-3---3-3---|
G|-2-2-2---2-2---|
D|-0-0-0-----0---|
A|---------------|
E|---------------|
Also, whenever an G follows and A chord, this is played to bridge the chords:
During the verses: During the chorus:
E|-----------------3---| E|----------------3---|
B|-2--3-3-3/5------0---| B|-2--3--3/5------0---|
G|-2--x-x-x-x--0-0-0---| G|-2--2--x-x--0-0-0---|
D|-2-----------0-0-0---| D|-2--2-------0-0-0---|
A|-0---------------2---| A|-0--------------2---|
E|-----------------3---| E|----------------3---|
So, when all put together, the guitar intro is played like this:
Bm A G Em D A G
E|----7-7-7------5-5-5------3-3-3------0-0-0---2----3---2-------------------3---|
B|----7-7-7------5-5-5------3-3-3------0-0-0-x-3----3---3---2--3-3-3/5------0---|

D|----9-9-9-x----7-7-7-0----5-5-5-0----2-------0--0---0---0-2-----------0-0-0---|
A|-9----------7----------5----------2-----------------------0---------------2---|
E|-7----------5----------3----------0---------------------------------------3---|
VERSE 1
-------
Bm* A* G* Em
I think I'll go home and mull this over
D A G
Til I cram it down my throat
Bm* A* G* Em
At long last it's crashed, it's colossal mass
D A G
Has broken up into bits in my moat
CHORUS 2
--------
Em D Em D
Rip the mattress off the floor
Em D A G
Walk the cramps off, go meander in the cold
Em D Em D
Heavy and dark skinned, hiding the fact you're dead again
Em D A G
Underneath the powerlines seeking shade
G/f# G /F# G /#F G /F# G
Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
VERSE 2
-------
It's a lucious mix of words and tricks
That let us bet when we know we should fold
On rocks I've dreamt of where we stepped
And the whole mess of roads we're now on
CHORUS 2
--------
Hold your glass up, hold it in
Never betray the way you've always known it is
One day I'll be wondering how I got so old
Just wondering how I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow
This is way beyond my remote concern of being condescending
BRIDGE 1
--------
Bm Bm/A G G/f# Em G/f# G
All these squawking birds won't quit
Bm Bm/A G G/f# Em G/f# G
Buil-ding no - thing lay - ing bricks
PLAY VERSE, CHORUS 2 AND BRIDGE AGAIN
