[Verse 1]
Em Am Em
While you was gone you must have done a lot of favors
Em Am
You’ve got a whole lot of things I don’t think that you could ever have paid for
Em Bm
While you’ve been busy crying about my past mistakes
Am A A
I’ve been busy trying to make a change, now I made the change

[Verse 2]
Em Am Em
I’ve been riding with the ghost I’ve been doing whatever he told me
Em Am
I've been looking door to door to see if there was someone who'd hold me
Em Bm
I never met a single one who didn’t see through me
Am A A
None of them would love me if they thought they might lose me, unless I made a change
Em Am Em D

[Verse 3]
Em Am Em
See I ain’t getting better I am only getting behind
Em Am
Standing on a crossroad trying to make up my mind
Em Bm
Trying to remember how it got so late
Am A A
While every night pain comes from a different place, now something’s got to change
Em Am Em D

[Verse 4]
Em Am Em
I put my foot to the floor to make up for the miles I’ve been losing
Em Am
I’ve been running out of things I didn’t even know I was using
Em Bm
While you’ve been busy learning how to complain
Am A A
I’ve been busy learning how to make the change, now I made the change
Em Am Em D

I like this alot, but I just change the capo to the 2nd fret and then play the chorus riff starting on 7th fret of the b-string instead.

Very good! The chorus riff is nice. In the youtube videos he/they do the riff with a slide, slide with fingers, or just using his voice for the riff when he was playing alone. Loads of fun. Thanks

If you have a deep voice like mine try dropping it down to capo on 1st fret, chords stay the same
