How You Survived the War  The Weepies

The Weepies - How You Survived The War
Note: I was a little stumped by the "You give up like every time before" line so
I tried my best and heard a Dadd9
but I could be horribly wrong. Anyways enjoy this beyond awesome song!!!
Intro: (keyboard fades in on Asus)
Dsus2 Asus4 Dsus2/G Asus4 x2
Verse:
[Dsus2]You never c[Asus4]hange your mind on[Dsus2/G]ce it's made u[Asus4]p
[Dsus2]Unless it's to [Dsus/G]crawl back on your [Asus4]knees[Asus/C#]
Chorus:
Is that [Dsus2/G]the way you [Asus4]want it?
You [Dsus2]get back to the [Asus4]wall
And put your [Dsus2/G]hands up
It's a [Asus4]holdup
[Dsus2]You give up [Dadd9]like every time [Asus4]before
[Dsus2/G]That is how [Asus4]you survived the [Dsus2]war
Interlude: Dadd9 Dsus2/G Asus4 Asus4 x2
Verse(same progression):
You never multiply, all these divisions
You give yourself the least of parts
I put on my green felt hat, pack our privisions
Playing a merry Prince of Thieves
Chorus(same progression):
Is that the way you want it?
You get back to the wall
And put your hands up
It's a holdup
You give up like every time before
That is how you survived the war
Interlude: Dadd9 Dsus2/G Asus4 Asus4 x2 (kind of hold out I think on Asus4 as you
go into the next part)
Bridge:
[Dadd9]You're not gonna [Dsus2/G]lose this [Asus4]one[Asus2]
[Dadd9]You don't have to[Dsus2/G] cut and r[Asus4]un[Asus2]
[Dadd9]I think you can c[Dsus2/G]hoose to l[Asus4]ove and[Asus2] what is more
[Dsus2/G]That is how [Asus4]you survived the [Dsus2]war
Verse:
Now in a summer's day, spring a ripened plum
How will you live under the sun?
You follow the open road, remembering the guns
When you get lost under the trees
Chorus:
Is that the way you want it?
You get back to the wall
And put your hands up
It's a holdup
You give up like every time before
That is how you survived the war
[Dsus2/G]That is how [Asus4]you survived the [Dsus2]war
[Dsus2]You never c[Asus4]hange your mind on[Dsus2/G]ce it's made u[Asus4]p
End on Dsus2
