Guitar chords with lyrics

Standard tuning, Capo 7th fret

Cadd9  ----------032033
G      ----------320033
Em7    ----------022033
G5/E   ----------002033
D/F    ----------200233
C/G    ----------332010

In the verses I play Cadd9 but without my first finger (so, 030033) and hammer on
my first finger to make it Cadd9 (032033) and do the same on the G (hammering on
my first finger) just to make it sound more interesting as I haven't had time to
work out the finger picking pattern yet and strum on the chorus.

Sorry if it's not 100% but it sounds alright to me and I wanted to play this at a
concert tomorrow so came up with my own chords to sound better, it's also my first
ever go at tabbing so hope you think it's okay! :)
VERSE 1:

Cadd9                             G
You kept all the things i threw away
Cadd9                               G
A leaf i picked a birthday card I made

Cadd9          Em7       G5/E
Holding on to memories of you and me
                   G
We didn't last a year
Cadd9                  G5/E
We're just a box of souvenirs

CHORUS:

Em7 Cadd9  G
Maybe
               D/F   Em7
I pulled the panic cord
Em7 Cadd9  G
Maybe
                 D/F    Em7
you were happy, I was bored
 Em7
Maybe
  Cadd9            G      D/F  Em7
I wanted you to change
Em7   Cadd9            G
Maybe I'm the one to blame

VERSE 2:

Cadd9                                 G
This meant more to you than it did to me
Cadd9                           G
I was full of doubt and you believed
Cadd9                          Em7
The more than you keep coming over
         G5/E               G
The more I know it's over dear
Cadd9                  G5/E
We're just a box of souvenirs

CHORUS:

Em7 Cadd9  G
Maybe
               D/F   Em7
I pulled the panic cord
Em7 Cadd9  G
Maybe
                 D/F    Em7
you were happy, I was bored
 Em7
Maybe
  Cadd9            G      D/F  Em7
I wanted you to change
Em7   Cadd9            G     D/F   Em7
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Em7 Cadd9  G
Maybe
          D/F           Em7
you were just to nice to me
Em7 Cadd9  G
Maybe
           D/F             Em7
it took me way to long to leave
Em7   Cadd9              G      D/F  Em7
Maybe once we felt the same
Em7   Cadd9             G       D/F  Em7
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Em7   Cadd9             G
Maybe I'm the one to blame

BRIDGE: (palm mute and slow down strumming)

D/F         Em7  Cadd9
Do re mi fa so la ti do
C/G                       Cadd9
thats the way the story goes oh x2 (Single strum on Cadd9 on the second time round)

CHORUS:

Em7 Cadd9  G
Maybe
               D/F   Em7

Maybe once we felt the same
Em7   Cadd9             G       D/F  Em7
Maybe I'm the one to blame
Em7   Cadd9             G (hold)
Maybe I'm the one to blame
