C E7 Am Dm Am G
C E7 Am G F C G C G
[Verse]
you were CgoneE7
when we Amfound you
you were Dmpractically Amsurrounded, you were Gtrapped
but the Copposition E7stalled, the Amblood Gran Fcold
Cwhen they saw the Glook of love in your Ceye G
maybe the Ctimes we had they E7weren't that bad
and Ameverything else was part of the plan
and we Dmsang "i Cdon't know Gwhere we go"
from the Calpha, the E7omega, the Abeginning Gand the Fend
and we Call just Gidolize the Cdead G
[Chorus]
so you were CbornE7 and that was a Amgood day
and Dmsomeday you'll Cdie and that is a Gshame
yeah but Csomewhere in the E7between you'll live a Amlife of Gwhich we all Fdream
and Cnothing and no-one will Gever take that Caway G
[Instrumental]

you had a Clove
C/B and that Am7love had Gyou
F and nothing G#mattered you were Cfine G
Csome wilC/Bl complain they're just Am7bitter what a Gshame
they know that Floving and losing is G#better than nothing at Call
may-be the Ctimes we had they E7weren't that bad
and Ameverything else was part of the plan
and we Dmsang "i Amdon't know Gwhere we go"
from the Canthem the E7slogan the Amsummary Gof Fevents
and we Call just Gidealize the Cpast G
[Chorus]

Notes:
*the whole song should be played at a slow-medium tempo -- take your time and enjoy the song.
*the introduction is highly stylized. tom puts lots of little fills between chord
sequences. try some!
*tom plays a lick during the intro and several times in the song between chords Am
G and F that looks something like this:
Am G F
e|------------|
B|----------1-|
G|---2--0--2--|
D|--2--2--3---|
A|-0----------|
E|----3--1----|
basically it's just a walk down from the A to the F. not super difficult. kind of quick.
maybe finger pick it?
*the second verse is played as follows:
C / / C/B / / Am7 / / G / / F / / G# / / C / / G
|--------------------------------------------------|
|-1-----1-------1-------------1-----4------5-----3-|
|-0-----0-------0------0------2-----5------5-----4-|
|-2-----0------(2)-----0------3-----6------5-----5-|
|-3-----2-------0------2------3-----6------3-----5-|
|----------------------3------1-----4------3-----3-|
protip: add some panache. strum these chords with confidence and rhythm.
*the end is played kind of like this:
C G C (rit.)
|------------------|
|----------------1-|
|----0----------0--|
|---2-----0----2---|
|-3------2---3-----|
|------3-----------|
again just kind of a little walk uphill. not fast. take yr time. or change the end to
suit yr own playing skill/style!
