A quick and simple first attempt at the chords.
No capo, and just G-C-Em-C the whole way through.
Let me know if someone figures out a nice way to play the solo on an acoustic.
[Verse]
G C
Dead parents and a lack of pity
Em C
Dead parents with a knack for shitty luck
G C
And I know you wanna go home
Em C
And I know he's gonna take you home
G C
But you're the house that I wanna live in
Em C
You're the home that I dreamt of building
G C Em C
But dead parents, what a slack and pretty way of saying something I don't mean
[Chorus]
G C
I got Viv in the front seat
Em C
And I got it all out in front of me
G C Em C
And you, you in my mind all of the time
[Verse]
G C
Proud parents and a baby
Em C
Vowed one day we would name him after him
G C
And I hope he's got your eyes
Em C
And I hope he's got your eyes
[Chorus]
G C
I got Viv in the front seat
Em C
And I got it all out in front of me
G C Em C
And you, you in my mind all of the time
G C
And when I die, I'll die happy
Em C
First and full and completely
G C Em C
With you, you in my mind all of the time
[Bridge]
G C Em C
I could've died when I said what I said in front of you
G C Em C
I could've tried harder to feel the way you do (I felt my life)
G C Em C
You could've lied and said that It's okay, it's no big deal. (I felt my life)
G C Em C G
But what you said: It fucking sucks. It always has and always will!
Solo: G-C-Em-C x2
Final chorus:
G C
I got Viv in the front seat
Em C
And I got it all out in front of me
G C Em C
And you, you in my mind all of the time
G C
And when I die, I'll die happy
Em C
First and full and completely
G C Em C
With you, you in my mind all of the time
