Hi everyone!
These are the correct chords as Jamie McDell herself tweeted the chord progression - all I did was figure out where in the lyrics the chords change over.
No capo, standard tuning.
I like to play this slightly slowed down using fingerstyle, but this is not how Jamie plays it.
Hope you like this tab!!

Em D
I'm heading down this road,
G G
I might not know which way to go
C G C Bm7
That's OK, I'm just young & dumb!
Em D
I wear my shoes a little bigger,
G G
I fall for all your dirty tricks
C G C Bm7
It's fine, I'm just young & dumb!
Em D
Missy, come and catch me if you can
G G
And wrap me 'round your hips and let's just dance
C G
Missed in shooting an arrow through my heart
C Bm7
Come on, let's take this way too far
Em D
I get away with anything
G G C G
I'll rob your heart with just a wink and run
C Bm7
I'm just young & dumb!
Em D G G C
Run me off this road,
G
Crash right off the bridge
C Bm7
We only got one life to live!
Em D G G C
Before we get too old,
G C Bm7
Take your memories, they're all that you'll have left of me
Em D
Da da da da da da da
G
Da da da da da da da
Em D
Da da da da da da da
G Bm7
Da da da da da da da
I'm putting on this show
Forgetting what I should have known
I beat my drums, 'cause I'm young & dumb!
I'm shooting cannonball, exploding everywhere I fall
You better run, 'cause I'm young & dumb!
Missy, come and catch me if you can
And wrap me 'round your hips and let's just dance
Missed in shooting an arrow through my heart
Come on, let's take this way too far
I'm standing with a gun
I'm counting down four, three, two, one
Tick-tock it's time, I'm just young & dumb!
Run me off this road,
Crash right off the bridge
We only got one life to live!
Before we get too old,
Take your memories, they're all that you'll have left of me
Running off this road,
Don't you rescue me,
I know your water's testing me
Cross my way back home,
But it's all fun to me,
'cause walls are my worst enemy!
Da ta ta ta ta ta
Da ta ta ta ta ta
Da ta ta ta ta ta
Da ta ta ta ta ta
Now there's blisters on my feet,
Giant hole inside my dreams,
All for some fun, I was young & dumb!
