[Intro]
G Gaug G Gaug
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
I woke up as heavy as lead
 
an ocean of worry weighs
D
me down in bed but
 
 
[Chorus]
             Em        Ebaug
cause there's things to do
         G           Em6
Theres a life to live
    C      Cm
Must ignore my stupid head
 
G Gaug G Gaug
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
Friends float above in
 
the wind bright balloons
             D
pulling them up as they grin
 
 
[Chorus]

things I think
 
G Gaug G Gaug
 
 
[Bridge]
           G
It's like walking around
 
with a stone for a heart
       Gaug
people swimming in honey
 
as your life falls apart
      Em
It's cold and it's dark
 
And there's no way out
  Ebaug
I felt like you once
 
I wish I could shout
           G
It's like walking around
 
with a stone for a heart
       Gaug
people swimming in honey
 
as your life falls apart
      Em
It's cold and it's dark
 
And there's no way out
  Eb
I felt like you once
 
I wish I could shout
 
 
[Verse 3]
    G
you never can undo the brain
 
now it knows the holes it
     Ebaug
will fall as its trained
 
 
[Chorus]
            Em      Ebaug
cause there's things to do
         G        Em6
There's a life to live
             C
Watch them laugh while
    Cm
you stay in the rain

There's another chord following G on the word "live" in "there's thing to do, there's a life to live" but I'm not sure the name of it. It's a an open top string, first finger on the first fret of the second string, third finger on the third fret of the third string, and the second finger on the second fret of the fourth string.

in verde three “fall” should be a D

it's actually 'weighed' instead of 'lays' :)
