The Used is an American alternative rock band from Orem, Utah. Their sound has been classified under many sub-genres of rock. They signed with Reprise Records in late 2001 and rose to fame in June 2002 after releasing their debut self-titled album, The Used. Soon after a CD/DVD package named "Maybe Memories" was released containing unheard demos and a "behind the scenes" story of the band/band's past.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
These are the exact chords played in the song,
but I like the whole G, Cadd9 type of sound to acoustic songs.
So I redid the chords a little to my liking.
And since this song is in the key of "G" these chords sound really nice.
Hope you like it (:
Also, one little note on the chorus.
In the real song when he plays the "G" and then the octave,
I sortof do the same thing on the acoustic.
I'll play the G chord, and then when the octave is played
in the song I just strum the top two strings
to get that octave type sound. Hope this helps.

[Intro]
G,Em,Cadd9,D
[Verse]
G
You almost always pick the best times
Em
to drop the worst lines
Cadd9
you almost made me cry again this time
D
another false alarm
red flashing lights
G
well this time I'm not going to watch myself die
G
I think I made it a game to play your game
Em
and let myself cry
Cadd9
I buried myself alive on the inside
D
so I could shut you out
G
and let you go away for a long time
[Chorus]
G
I guess it's ok I puked the day away
Em Cadd9
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
D
and if you want me back
G
you're gonna have to ask
[Verse]
G
I think the chain broke away
Em
and I felt it the day that I had my own time
Cadd9
I took advantage of myself and felt fine
D
but it was worth the night
G
I caught an early flight and I made it home
[Chorus]
G
I guess it's ok I puked the day away
Em
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way
Cadd9
and if you want me back
D
you're gonna have to ask
Em D Cadd9
nicer than that
Em D Cadd9
nicer than that
[Break] - Cadd9 the whole time. I fingerpick it personally.
Cadd9
with my foot on your neck
I finally have you
right where I want you
right where I want you
right where I want you
right where I want you
G
I guess it's ok I puked the day away
Em
I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way (your own way)
Cadd9
and if you want me back
D
you're gonna have to ask
G (Fingerpicked until the end)
nicer than that (I guess it's ok I puked the day away)
nicer than that (I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way)
and if you want me back
you're gonna have to ask
