Chorus:
There are three lyrical versions of the chorus in the song,
but the chord progression is the same for all three. Here
is one version.
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
And everything I can remember
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
Is f**ked up as it always seemed
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
The consequences that I rendered
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2
Gonna f**k things up again
Bridge:
Am G6 Dsus2
Why must I feel this way?
Am G6 Dsus2
Just make this go away
Am G6 Dsus2
Just one more peaceful day
Am Cmaj7 G6 Dsus2

That’s the song. Tune down 1/2 step if you sound completely off.
