[Verse 1] (Same as above throughout the verses)
Bm                        F#aug
  You will find no wicked way in me
Em              F#
  Look me over, you will see
Bm                  F#aug
  You will find, no weary a change
Em                          F#
  I'm worn and wounded, but still the same
 
[Chorus]
G                  F#m
  Wooooaaaah oh oh oh
F#                    Bm     A
  Let me tell you the truth
G            F#m
  I love you more
F#                    Bm     A  G F#
  Than the sins of my youth.
 
[Verse 2]
Bm                      F#aug
  When the past gets up in your face
Em               F#
  Memories slide out of place
Bm                           F#aug
  All those things that were hidden away
Em                    F#
  Ain’t so bad in the light of day
 
[Chorus]
G                  F#m
  Wooooaaaah oh oh oh
F#                    Bm     A
  Let me tell you the truth
G            F#m
  I love you more
F#                    Bm     A  G F#
  Than the sins of my youth.
 
 
[Solo]
Em F# Em F#
D A G F#
 
[Verse 3]
Bm                        F#aug
Say you love me wish you, liked me more
Em            F#
I'm no Angel, that's for sure
Bm                       F#aug
Said you forgave me each time I was caught, 
Em                        F#
But you still paint me as something I'm not
 
 
[Chorus]
G                  F#m
  Wooooaaaah oh oh oh
F#                    Bm     A
  Let me tell you the truth
G            F#m
  I love you more
F#                    Bm     A
  Than the sins of my youth.
 
G            F#m
  I love you more
F#                    Bm     A  G F#
  Than the sins of my youth.
 
 
[Outro]
F# Bm
 
 
Notes
=====
 
Tab in the chorus follows a similar sort of pattern:
 
  G             F#m           F#              Bm   A (rake both)
e|-------------|-------------|---------2----|-2----0----|
B|-------3-----|-------2-----|-------2------|-3----2----|
G|----4--------|----2--------|----3---------|-4----2----|
D|-------------|-------------|--------------|-4----2----|
A|-------------|-------------|--------------|-2----0----|
E|-3-----------|-2-----------|-2------------|-----------|
 
  G (rake)   F#m           F#             Bm   A (rake both)
e|-3-------|-------------|---------2----|-2----0----|
B|-3-------|-------2-----|-------2------|-3----2----|
G|-4-------|----2--------|----3---------|-4----2----|
D|-5-------|-------------|--------------|-4----2----|
A|-5-------|-------------|--------------|-2----0----|
E|-3-------|-2-----------|-2------------|-----------|
 
  G (Rake)   F# (Strums)
e|-3-------|-2---2---2-2--|
B|-3-------|-2---2---2-2--|
G|-4-------|-3---3---3-3--|
D|-5-------|-4---4---4-4--|
A|-5-------|-4---4---4-4--|
E|-3-------|-2---2---2-2--|
 
If just strumming instead of picking the notes, I think it sounds better to go F#m to F#7.
