Great song off of the new album! You can play this in standard or throw a capo on
the 3rd fret (I like that, it's easier :)  )
 
Thanks to Luis.S for some corrections!
 
The Bb/A might not be what that is called, but do what I show below.
If anyone knows what it's called, please throw it in the comments and I'll fix it.

I'm pretty sure it's Bb rather than B (which fits with the chords you post for "B" and "B/A" at the start). I think the "People laugh at your tattoos, when the do get..." bit sounds more like Ebm rather than Eb. Also, the line you have as "Climb limits past the limits" sounds like "Find limits past the limits" to me. Anyway, thanks heaps for this, I was really happy to see someone had posted chords for this pretty much straight away. Would be 5 stars with the above corrections. Love the album and especially this song :)

It is in Bb! I was playing in that, but was so tired when I typed it up, haha. Once I figure out how I can edit this, I'll make those changes!

I think it should be: [tab] D#m A# F When they do get new ones in completely garish hues [/tab]
