Verse 4:
Stuck on the[Eadd9] end of this ball and [Gmaj7]chain
And I'm on my w[D]ay back do[A]wn again
Stood on the[Eadd9] edge, tied to the [Gmaj7]noose
Sick to the st[D]om[A]ach
Verse 5:
You can say what you[Eadd9] mean
But it won't change a [Gmaj7]thing
I'm sick of the se[D]cr[A]ets
Stood on the[Eadd9] edge, tied to the [Gmaj7]noose
And you came al[D]ong and you cut me l[A]oose
Outro (riff same as bridge 3, except all G6 chords are Gmaj7 chords):
[Eadd9] ... [Gmaj7] ... You came al[D]ong and you cut me l[A]oose
[Eadd9] ... [Gmaj7] ... You came al[D]ong and you cut me l[A]oose
