e--3--2--3--
b--3--3--3-- the best way to play this comfortably is to play the "3"
g--0--0--0-- on the Low E with your thumb, the "3" on the B with your
d--0--0--0-- ring finger and the "3" on the High E with your pinkie. This
a--x--x--x-- way you have your middle finger free to get the "2" on the
e--3--3--3-- High E.
e--3--2--3-- your hand position shouldn't change that much here, just now
b--3--3--3-- you are using your pointer finger for the "2" on the A string.
g--0--0--0-- everything else about this stays the same so don't feel inclined
d--x--x--x-- to lift your hand off of the fretboard. if you noticed, your
a--2--2--2-- pointer finger was completely ignored in the first chord.
e--0--0--0--
e--0--0--0--0-- this is your basic A minor position, with a twist. the G
b--1--0--3--1-- string is open at all times. finger positions should be middle
g--0--0--0--0-- finger on "2" on the D string, and pointer finger and pinkie
d--2--2--2--2-- making the "1--0--3--1" change on the B string, but nothing
a--0--0--0--0-- else moves in this chord
e--x--x--x--x--
e--0--0--0-- this is almost a carbon copy of the finger positioning that you
b--1--0--3-- just had with the last chord, just now you reach your ring finger
g--0--0--0-- up to play the "3" on the A string. the "1--0--3" change is once
d--2--2--2-- again done by the pointer and pinkie fingers.

| four more chords that are used in this song are B minor 7th, E flat, D and F. |
| F doesn't appear until the last 5 seconds of the song, so we won't talk about |
| | Bm7 |
| e-- | 2-- this chord is easy to play, but its in the song and then out so quick |
| b--3-- change may take some practice. you barre across the second fret with |
| g--2-- your pointer finger, and then your ring goes on the "4" on the D string |
| d--4-- and your middle goes on the "2" position on the B string. |
| Eb (b means the word Flat) |
| e--x-- now these guys may be playing more than this but this is all I can hear |
| b--x-- so I am willing to take suggestions on this part, but it does sound |
| g--8-- right to me. what I mean is, I know that its the right chord, i am |
| d--8-- unsure if they are ONLY playing these three notes to make the chord. |
| | D |
| e-- | 0-- truely one of my favorite ways to play D, as it is just sliding up from |
| b--3-- the C position you are already in two frets. it sounds totally different |
| g--0-- but still has everything there to make it a D. |
| | F |
| e-- | 1-- rather basic chord, you just barre across the first fret with you |
| b--1-- pointer finger and then use your ring for the "3" on the A string, your |
| g--2-- pinkie on the "3" on the D string, and your middle finger on the "2" on |
| now you'll notice that I put the names of the chords above the basis chords. this |
| means to you that if you don't want to play the riffs and just want to play the |
| chords along with the song, then you just strum those chords and those chords will |
| work fine. now i am only going to put the names of the chords above the lyrics |
| until I get to a chords that I haven't already discussed. |
| | G | Em |
| | You tell me that you're | leavin'.. |
| | Bm7 | C |
| And do you ever get | used to | runnin' away? |
| | G |
| From everything that you | are.. |
| | Em |
| And everywhere that you | came from.. |
| | Bm7 | C |
| Does the pressure just | build in | side you? |
| | Am7 | C |
| | Do you feel you need | change? |
| | D | C |
| All that | you've be | come.. |
