Not sure if D12 is an accurate label for the chord as I could not
identify the chord name (Dadd2add4/A?) but this is how Dallas Green plays it exactly.
Standard Tuning
Em D12 G Asus C
e|--0----0----0----0----0-------------------------------------------------|
B|--0----3----0----0----1-------------------------------------------------|
G|--0----0----0----2----0-------------------------------------------------|
D|--2----4----0----2----2-------------------------------------------------|
A|--2----5----2----0----3-------------------------------------------------|
E|--0----5----3----0----0-------------------------------------------------|
Em
Sorrowing man
D12
Look how warn you've become
Em D12
You once were lord of the barren sea
Em
There's blood on our hands
D12
In this perfect madness
Em D12
We're living on borrowed time
On the first three chord changes (generally)
E |-----0---------------------------------------0---------------------------|
B |-----0---------------------------------------3---------------------------|
G |-----0---------------------------------------0---------------------------|
D |-----2—0h2p0---------------------------------4---------------------------|
A |-----2------------0--------------------------5/7-------------------------|
E|------0---------------3-----------------------5---------------------------|
Chorus:
Em G D12 Asus C
Oh how you have lost your way,
Em G D12 Asus C
Oh how you have lost your way
The variation on the C chord on the studio track is just a pull off on the 1st fret,
acoustically, Dallas Green tends to pull off on the A string as well.
Verse 2:
Em
There's no sympathy
D12
cause we don't know the cure
EM
Cause what you've got
D12
it runs too pure
Em
But you've lived and breathed
D12
More than any man I know
Em
But you're not done
D12
Oh at least I hope
Chorus:
Em G D12 Asus C
Oh how you have lost your way,
Em G D12 Asus C
Oh how you have lost your way
Em G D12 Asus C
In this life we have made together
Em G D12 Asus C
Oh how you have lost your way,
Em G D12 Asus C
Oh how you have lost your way
Em G D12 Asus C
Oh how you have lost your way,
The outro is just the verse riff repeated, Enjoy.
