Same pattern through first verse but with the Cmaj7 played for an extra
two bars every second line (You’ll figure it out)
Or alternatively just strum through the chords
 
 
Verse:
Em           D      Cmaj7
Lay off me would ya 
                             Em     D     Cmaj7

Em           D      Cmaj7

                           Em   D       Cmaj7
I'm just nervous ´bout my family filing in 
Em         D        Cmaj7
Ready to wrap me up 
                           Em      D        Cmaj7
Ready to love me In this new skin I'm fillin in 
 
 
Chorus:
            Em   D    G
Who's that trying to speak for me? 
         Em  D         C
What is it that they claim to be? 
           Em   D     G
A child of God much like yourself 
          Em  D          C      G
You will find me right where I fell 
 
 
Verse:
It sounds good sliding up and down with power chords hitting the open E string for this part :)
For anyone who doesn’t get his I wrote it out above
 
 
    Em        D     Cmaj7
I am a tired woman 
                   Em  D   Cmaj7
In January I will just be twenty three 
Em         D         Cmaj7
In Kansas City I was undressed and vested by an 
Em   D     Cmaj7
airtight floor 
                Em     D     Cmaj7
Then it said, 
                        Em     D     Cmaj7
And wrapped me in this new skin I'm dyin for 
 
Em     D     Cmaj7     x2
 
 
 
Chorus:
              Em   D    G

              Em  D         C
What kind of love do they claim to be? 
            Em  D      G
A child of God much like yourself 
              Em  D          C       G
You'll still find me right where I fell 
 
 
Chorus:
              Em   D    G

              Em  D         C

              Em  D          C       G
You'll still find me right where I fell
 
 
The song has the Bm and F#m in this part but you can drop either one and it will still fine
 
G
C, F#m, G, Bm, C, F#m, G         (Again I recommend playing power chords)
Em, D, G, Em, D, G
 
 
Outro:
C            F#m     G
The darkness fears 
Bm    C    F#m   G
What darkness knows 
                Em   D            G
But if you've never known the darkness 
                Em   D            G
Then you're the one who fears the most 
C            F#m     G
The darkness fears 
Bm    C    F#m   G
What darkness knows 
                Em   D            G
But if you've never known the darkness 
                Em   D            G
Then you're the one who fears the most 
C            F#m     G
The darkness fears 
Bm    C    F#m   G
What darkness knows 
                Em   D            G
But if you've never known the darkness 
                Em   D            G
Then you're the one who fears the most
 
 
Go back to full chords and strum each one once
 
              Em         D            G
But if you do not know the darkness 
                Em   D            G
Then you're the one who fears the most 
              Em        D            G
But if you do not know the darkness 
                Em   D            G
Then you're the one I fear the most
