For the intro play:

|D-sequence|

During the verses, you can play the above rhythms or just the plain chords, which are these:


    D MajorD
What's passed these hands?
All these drugs and one night stands
   D MajorD
So I tremble when I think of what she'd do
She'd say something like:
 D MajorD
"You're no good,
You're like the junkies in this neighborhood"
    D MajorD
We all need a fix, I guess I need one too
    A augmentedA (5 fr.)
But I'm trying madly to calm these nerves
        D MajorD (10 fr.)
With something new

       D MajorD
I've got this heavy debt, I've got nothing left
But this daunting weight slung ‘round my neck
      G+G
You got the callous mouth, all your endless doubts
       D MajorD
We spent these fifteen weeks, trying to work it out
    D MajorD
Do you think we're getting to something new?

(Intro chord sequence on “new”)
|D-sequence|

       N.C.
Oh God, not another fight
I'm always trying to get the details right
 D MajorD
I remember when you told me you felt saved
     D MajorD
And you promised you'd lay flowers on my grave
   A augmentedA
Just like they used to do
        D MajorD
Is it something new?

    D MajorD
And now here I stand
With these blood soaked hands
On these sleepless nights that never end
     G+G
All these songs I sing
All these hope I cling to
D MajorD
Desperately wondering
    D MajorD
Are we finally getting to something new?

(Intro chord sequence on “new,” continuing over final lyrics.)

Is it something new?
Are we finally to something new?
