Here is the complete song:
Intro: E6 Gdim6 E6 Gdim6 (a couple of times)
Her [E6]gaze hit the side of mine so I [Gdim6]opened it out
To de[E6]stroy what you thought was [Gdim6]difference
So I [E6]lied to you once again
So I [Gdim6]painted over you once again
So I [E6]die before you once again
What's the [Gdim6]difference?
[E6] [Gdim6] [E6] [Gdim6]
Come [E6]clearly where the flavour is
Seen [Gdim6]here in black and white
You've [E6]got two seconds, baby boy
In [Gdim6]burning light white light
What's the [E6]difference?[G] [E6] [G]
[Em]Clear up what you are
[G]Burn out these eyes
[F#]Rip up this place and scream
I am your [Em]slice of life[G] [F#]
I am your [Em]slice of life[G] [F#]
I am your [Em]slice of life[G] [F#]
I am your [Em]slice of life[G] (li[F#]fe)
Slight interlude: G/E G* (<-- play the G riff with an E bass note, then a G bass note)
Shivering under lamposts, shivering under glass
You're standing on charisma again
God knows it cannot last
What's the difference?
Ice inside your body
Blood inside your soul
Yet still twelve faces stand around
Hugging your skinny bones
What's the difference?
So [Em]clear up what you are
[G]Burn out these eyes
[F#]Rip up this place and [F]scream
I am your slice of life
I am your slice of life
I am your slice of life
I am your slice of life
(continue with the Em G F# chord progression to the end of the song)
And the car opened him up to so much more
And the money is brighter with a wider smile
And the problem expands inside your head
I am your slice of life
I am your slice of life
I am your slice of life
I am your slice of life
