Here's a video to the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJuSl8AD9HA
Skrillex's real name is Sonny Moore and that was meant to be the "official" artist name for this song.
However nowadays he's known as Skrillex.
 
Capo isn't neccessary but I play it on 3rd fret. A lot of the vocals land inbetween beats. If there's a small
space before the chord above a lyric, that means the chord is meant to be played AFTER the lyric has started.
As for Bridge 2, the first half should be strummed softly, second half should be louder. The N.C. can also be
a soft F.
 
[VERSE 1]
Am                      Em
Back in the cuts break-back cement 40 oz
   C          F
so minimal in our heads
Am                         Em
Drown drone beggars where are you glory
          C              F
under the bitten sky we play
Am                        Em
Back in the past we were born
            C          F
to suck so diligently
       Am                     Em
Be the concrete floor or this cougar-whore
          C                           F
You can’t trust the dust that’s been given
 
 
[BRIDGE 1]
C         Am
Bring me close to love
          Em                D
Would you give me a reason to believe
C                Am
 Trapped by the world
          Em                D
Would you give me a reason to believe
 
 
[CHORUS]
F           G
Father said
        Am
You can find me on broadway
Em
Find me on broadway
F            G
 Father told me
        Am
You can find me on broadway
Em
Find me on broadway
 
 
[VERSE 2]
Am               Em                C        F
So many ways to flip our heads up-side-down
       Am                   Em
It’s a fellow eclipse of a bit fist
        C                           F
We cry wolf under the hemorrhaging crown
Am
Back in the past
         Em              C         F
We were born to suck so diligently
    Am
Our lips are not to be closed
          Em
under the shade of all your sniveling
       C
Taking in all the wind of your jump-cliff
    F
and whisper ever so
 
 
[BRIDGE 1]
C         Am
Bring me close to love
          Em                D
Would you give me a reason to believe
C                Am
 Trapped by the world
          Em                D
Would you give me a reason to believe
 
 
[CHORUS]
F           G
Father said
        Am
You can find me on broadway
Em
Find me on broadway
F            G
 Father told me
        Am
You can find me on broadway
Em
Find me on broadway
 
 
[BRIDGE 2]
C               D
Oh I crave that over-the-hill we pave
Em                      G         C
Here I am will you shun me now no
                             D              Em
The loved you’ve claimed was just a whisper
                  G
Here I am no shun me
C               D
Oh I crave that over-the-hill we pave
Em                      G         C
Here I am will you shun me now no
                             D              Em
The loved you’ve claimed was just a whisper
                  G
Here I am no shun me
 
 
[CHORUS]
