Standard Tuning EADGBe (Capo optional, wherever you think it fits best)
These chords are meant to be easy enough to sing along with, so they're not 100%
like the real song, but hey, first chords ever for this song.
[Am]Your gun[Em] went off
Well you [F]shot off your mouth and [G6]look where it got you
[Am]My mouth [Em]runs on too[F]
[---]  
[Am]Shouts from [Em]both sides,
"Well [F]we've got the land but t[G6]hey've got the view!"
[Am]Well now [Em]here's the [F]clue
[Am]Life it [Em]rents us
And [F]yeah I hope it put [G6]plenty on you
Well [Am]I hope [Em]mine did to[F]o
[---]Chorus:
[C]As life gets longer, [G6]awful feels softer
Well it f[Em]eels pretty soft to [F]me
And if it[C] takes sh*t to [G6]make bliss,
then I feel[Em] pretty blissful[F]ly
[---]  
[Am]Your gun [Em]went off
Well you [F]shot off your mouth and l[G6]ook where it got you
[Am]My mouth [Em]runs on to[F]o
[Am]Shouts from [Em]both sides,
"Well [F]we've got the land but [G6]they've got the view!"
[Am]Well now [Em]here's the c[F]lue
[Am] [Em] We are [F]fiiiiiiiiii[G6]iiiixed
[Am] [Em] Right where we[F] stand
[---]  
[Am]Life it [Em]rents us
And [F]yeah I hope it put [G6]plenty on you
Well [Am]I hope [Em]mine did [F]too
[Am] [Em] We are [F]fiiiiiiiiii[G6]iiiixed
[Am] [Em] Right where we[F] are
[---]Chorus:
[C]As life gets longer, [G6]awful feels softer
Well it f[Em]eels pretty soft to [F]me
And if it[C] takes sh*t to [G6]make bliss,
then I feel[Em] pretty blissful[F]ly
[---]Pre-Solo: (Isaac Screaming into some police speaker-style thing)
[C]For every invention ma[G6]de how much time did we sav[Em]e?
We're not much farther than we wer[F]e in the cave
[---](Solo)
**No chords are that apparent but I pulled this together, sounds 10% like the real
song but its something.**
Am E G6 F (listen to the song for timing)
[---]Breakdown: Strum each of these chords once or twice.
As [C]life gets longer, a[G6]wful feels softer, and it
[Em]feels pretty soft to me[F]
And if [C]it takes sh*t to [G6]make bliss,
Well I [Em]feel pretty blissful[F]ly
If [C]life's not beautiful with[G6]out the pain,
Well I'd just [Em]rather never ever even see...[F] beauty again
Well as [C]life gets longer, [G6]awful feels softer
And it[Em]... feels pretty soft to[F] me, oh hooo
[---]Pre Chorus: (Again Isaac screaming into the police speaker thing)
[C]For every good deed d[G6]one there is a crime commit[Em]ted
We are [F]fixed
[C]For every step ah[G6]ead we could have just been seat[Em]ed
We are f[F]ixed
[---]Chorus Outro:
[C]As life gets longer, [G6]awful feels softer
Well it f[Em]eels pretty soft to [F]me
And if it[C] takes sh*t to [G6]make bliss,
then I feel[Em] pretty blissful[F]ly
[C] We are [G6]fixed
[Em] We are [F]fixed
[C] We are [G6]fixed
[Em] Right where we.[F].. stand
