This Tab was originally tabbed by timusus but it was a bit incomprehensible.
What i have done is reformat the chords on top of the songs and change the chord
names to the ones relative to the capo. Kudos to timusus for figurng out the chords.
~Capo 3~
The chord diagrams are relative to the capo, i.e. the capo is on 3, which will be 0.

Intro: G1 G2 G3
Verse: Palm Mute All Chords
Bm Cm*
I could catch up to - to where you are
G3 Em
see if we can make it right
Bm Cm*
if I thought meeting you somewhere in the dark
G3 Em
was gonna shed any new light
Bm Cm*
Oh we'd sit around, we'd talk awhile
G3 Em
Make polite excuses
Bm Cm*
But the cat has my tounge, i'm not saying much
G3 Em
'Cause i get shy around bullshit
Brief Interlude: Let chords ring
Bm - Cm* - G3
Verse: Palm mute again
Bm Cm*
My new time piece is watching ice melt
G3 Em
Down the bottom of my glass
Bm Cm*
And i love to watch, when fuses burn
G3 Em
Down towards their future plans
Bm Cm*

G3 Em

Bm Cm* G D G
and sing la da dadida da da, dada da
C Em G
Lock all the doors, pull the phone from the wall, run and hide
C Em C (C up 2 frets)
Oh I used to be such a nice guy
Brief Interlude: Let chords ring
Bm - Cm* - G3
Bm Cm*
Maybe clarity will creep up on me
G3 Em
and reset my senses like a clock
Gm Cm*
and you'll convince me that your reality
G3 Em
is better than the one that I’ve got
Bm Cm*
you'll give me a second chance at my second chance
G3 Em
and we will laugh about my near miss
Bm Cm*
and the good lord will reward my ignorance
G D
with a little bliss
C C C
And I'll see a welcome face in the mirror that I don't
Em G
Recogni-----ise
C Em C (C shifted 2 frets up)
Oh I used to be such a nice guy
C C
but now the details are vague, it's so strange, like a
Em G
previous li – i – i - ife
C Em C (C shifted 2 frets up)
Oh I used to be such a nice guy
C Em
But I don't know when to admit that I'm lost -
C Em
when to stubbornly insist that I'm not
Em (C shifted 2 frets up)
Oh dear bless every thought in your thoughtful head
