They play this song half-step down. Live, the guitarist plays with a capo on the second fret,
but in acoustic videos, Christian plays half-step down without a capo. You can adjust the capo
to fit your vocal range. All chords relative to capo.
If you need a visual for how to play/move around the chord shapes, check out this video:

I have no idea what the correct chord names for some of these would be, so here's how you play them
(from low E to high E string).
A: x0222x
A/B: x2022x
A/F#: 20022x
Asus4: xx023x
We Acalled off your gA/Buard as we A/F#entered the yAsus4ard
to convAince you to rA/Bedirect sA/F#ome of that rAsus4age
Because wAho fed you rA/Bocks while they A/F#ate their thankAsus4sgiving

And when yAou were a A/Bpup, I wA/F#atched you so cAsus4lose
you ran strAaight to the diA/Bstance allA/F#owed by his rAsus4ope
you got kAicked, you got cA/Bhoked, phrases cA/F#rept up your sAsus4pine
when he said &quoAt;we must keep A/Bour bitcheA/F#s in line".
And on hAis poker nA/Bights he says the A/F#same of his wAsus4ife.
He's the Atop dog/pack lA/Beader/tA/F#rue alpha-Asus4male.
So make Ano sudden A/Bmoves keep your A/F#nose from the Asus4border.
You move fAast. You eat lA/Bast this side oA/F#f pecking-oAsus4rder.

So why don't Ayou come with A/Bme?
We've got A/F#acres with sAsus4treams. We won't kAeep you in cA/Bages/make you A/F#beg for your trAsus4eats.
We won't tAell you to hA/Beel, though you mA/F#ight need some tAsus4ime to

You said "AYour offerA/B is nice bA/F#ut here shoAsus4uld suffice. Yeah, Amy younger years wA/Bere something
But that A/F#isn't my lAsus4ife. Master is aAll that I've gA/Bot.
He keeps me hA/F#aving a purAsus4pose, gives me bAed, keeps me A/Bfed.
And I'm jA/F#ust slightly neAsus4rvous of wAhat I might A/Bdo if A/F#I were let Asus4loose, if I
ACaught that mail A/Bcar, or ate gA/F#arbage for Asus4food. So, as I Abare all my A/Bteeth

to the hAeels of your kA/Bindred breaking cA/F#hains from their Asus4feet
and then you Awipe your A/Bhands clean. Splash of A/F#water/paper nAsus4apkin.
While the Aparrots sing hA/Beadlines, we wear the A/F#leash like a fAsus4ashion.
Try to tAake out my cA/Blaws expect a vA/F#isceral reaAsus4ction.
Try to mAuzzle me uA/Bp, I'll lash oA/F#ut, I'll bite Asus4back
