INTRO: D Em G
       Bm A G
 
 
D
Well I don't know where the time goes
               Em
But I remember what you said
                  G
And every single feeling's dead
D
Every word sounds more absurd
                       Em
Faith and comedy could heal the hurt
                            G
Verses dug out through some Christian dirt
 
          Bm
Well am I everything you wanted?
      A                   G
Am I everything you never had?
          Bm
Well am I everything you wanted?
     A                    G
Am I everything you never had?                           
                 Bm      A
I thought it was strange
          G
How they kept me in the dark
              Bm                        A
Shouting "One day young boy you'll be a man
               G
and you'll be guiding this old ark.
                    Bm      A    G
You've got a lonely heart."
                Bm     A    G
Oh but a lonely heart
 
D
Facing me 
 
A false belief
                        Em
And I never thought the books I read
                    G
Would make me who I want to be
 
 
          Bm
Well am I everything you wanted?
      A                   G
Am I everything you never had?
          Bm
Well am I everything you wanted?
     A                    G
Am I everything you never had?                             
 
                  Bm     A
I thought it was strange
          G
How they kept me in the dark
              Bm                        A
Shouting "One day young boy you'll be a man
               G
and you'll be guiding this old ark.
                    Bm      A    G
You've got a lonely heart."
                Bm     A    G
Oh but a lonely heart
 
 
D                         Em                G
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
                        Bm
I still listen to your favorite songs
                 A    G
Wishing you were in my arms
 
D                         Em                G
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
                        Bm
I still listen to your favorite songs
                 A    G
Wishing you were in my arms
 
D                         Em                G
I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone
                        Bm
I still listen to your favorite songs
                 A    G
Wishing you were in my arms

Good up until the end but the bridge/ending is definitely off. Sounds to me like I never knew how much I'd miss it till it's gone D I still listen to your favorite songs Em Wishing you were in my arms Bm A G I never knew how much I'd miss it til its gone The thing is, it's always gonna sound a little off played this way (especially the Em) because while this is a pretty accurate cover version, they play the song in open D tuning with different chord voicings.

Clearly wrong. Have Mercy plays all of their songs in open D tuning, there are a couple of videos on youtube where you can see Brian playing this particular song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ISi1UHfneU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIQK1c5pfYQ

wrong tuning, miss used chords. Over structure is correct, but still isn't accurate. I also like candy bars and I'm going to type random words because i'm required to.
