Intro:
Am B7 G

Verse:
For these chords, stay on the bassy side and keep it short
Em             C
Let me see you get yourself
            Em
out of this situation
             C
Go ahead, accommodate me
                Em
You said, "I've missed this mattress,
         C
and I've missed being classless,
         Em                      C
and this district's lifeless."

Em
   Show me in the evening
C
   Until you've disembarked
Em                                   C
   And had a sudden change of heart

Instrumental:
Am  B7  G

Solo:
Rhythm guitar plays Em C Em C, at first arpeggiated and then strummed later--just listen

Note: I was too lazy to figure out the notes based on where the capo is, so these are the actual
         frets on the guitar, forget about the capo for now

The first part of this you can play around with, I think he uses some effects to jump the octave
and stuff but this is how I've been playing it, and you can kind of screw around with the bending.
