Verse 1
Stranger than your sympathy
And this is my apology
I killed myself from the inside out
And all my fears have pushed you out
 
 
Chours:
G                Dsus4               Cadd9
And I wished for things that I don't need
(All I wanted)
G          Dsus4               Cadd9
And what I chased won't set me free
(All I wanted)
G         Dsus4              Cadd9
And I get scared but I'm not crawlin' on my knees
 
 
Oh, yeah
G            Dsus4      Cadd9
Everything's all wrong, yeah
G            Dsus4      Cadd9
Everything's all wrong, yeah
G              Dsus4         Cadd9
Where the hell did I think I was? (Play end of shours riff here)

Repeat Intro for verse:
Stranger than your sympathy
I take these things so I don't feel
I'm killing myself from the inside out
Now my head's been filled with doubt
 
 
Chours:
G            Dsus4             Cadd9
It's hard to lead the life you choose
All I wanted
G             Dsus4             Cadd9
When all your luck's run out on you
All I wanted
G         Dsus4             Cadd9
You can't see when all your dreams are coming true
 
 
Oh yeah
G         Dsus4     C
it's easy to forget yeah
G         Dsus4          C
You choke on the regrets yeah
G       Dsus4              C
Who the hell did I think I was
 
 
Verse (repeat intro)
Stranger than your sympathy
All these thoughts you stole from me
I'm not sure where I belong
Nowhere's home and I'm all wrong
 
 
Em7          Dsus4
And I wasn't all the things
Cadd9           G
I tried to make believe I was
Em7            Dsus4
And I wouldn't be the one to kneel
Cadd9             G
Before the dreams I wanted
Em7                   Dsus4
And all the talk and all the lies
Cadd9                                  G
Were all the empty things disguised as me (play end chours riff)
 
(Repeat Intro)
Mmm, yeah
Stranger than your sympathy
Stranger than your sympathy
Mmm hmmm mmm
 
end on G

Hunter, for the lines that go "everything's all wrong", etc it try playing with Em instead of G and play D, but omit the C9.

hunter, this is way off. I think John strums the songs, he doesn't pick it except for the bit after the chorus...do another tab of this song but make it better.
