On the record, Garrett plays with a capo on the 7th fret, using shapes in the key of C,
but live, he plays it this way (albeit with a capo on the 1st fret). I figured I would tab it
out without the capo, and you can transpose -7 (or wherever you prefer) and add the capo if you choose.

[Verse 1]
G
Here I go again
Bm
Liquored up and then
Em C D
Singing Propagandhi until I lose oxygen
G
Probably want my tab
Bm
Problem that I have
Em C D
But luckily for me all my bartender friends are rad
G
I know I wear my stress
Bm
I know you're not impressed
Em C D
But you're not the reason that I put on my party dress
G
To go out and have a few
Bm
And if you only knew
Em C D
That me leaving wasn't the worst thing I could do to you
[Pre-Chorus]
C
I'm not a Christian man
D Eb Em
I got no grandiose plan
D C
I'm just trying to stay alive
C D Eb
With all my money spent paying this god damn rent
Em D C
And the tension is high
D
Do you wonder why?
[Chorus]
G
Everybody dies
Bm
Everybody dies
Em C D G
Everybody gets fucked every once in a while
G
Everybody tries
Bm
Everybody lies
Em C D G
'Cause everybody kind of sucks deep down in their soul
G Bm
I guess heaven sent another president
Em C D G
But does it even really matter who it is anyway?
G
When everyone's afraid
Bm
No one's getting laid
Em C D G Bm
But everybody gets fucked every once in a while
Em C D G
Everybody gets fucked every once in a while
[Interlude]
G Bm Em C D
[Pre-Chorus]
C
I'm not a Christian man
D Eb Em
I got no grandiose plan
D C
I'm just trying to stay alive

With all my money spent paying this god damn rent

And the tension is high
D
Do you ever stop and wonder why?
[Chorus]
G
Everybody dies
Bm
Everybody dies
Em C D G
Everybody gets fucked every once in a while
G
Everybody tries
Bm
But everybody lies
Em C D G
'Cause everybody kind of sucks deep down in their soul
G Bm
I guess heaven sent another president
Em C D G
But does it even really matter who it is anyway?
G
When everyone's afraid
Bm
No one's getting laid
Em C D G Bm
But everybody gets fucked every once in a while
Em C D G
Everybody gets fucked every once in a while

Thanks for this transcription and I’m glad to see some Garrett Dale’s fans out there. I would like to make a suggestion for the progression here . In the chorus, your notation moves from C to D to Eb to Em. That Eb, I believe when I hear it, is an A fully diminished in the first inversion. The notes of this chord would be A, C, Eb Gb. This makes an excellent passing chord, the bass plays the Eb making it the third inversion, from D the V Chord to Em the iv in the key of G major. Try it out and let know if you think is sound good.
