So here goes Cry on Demand by Gomez, of their alubm How We Operate, awesome album:
It's kinda weird trying to show the rythm and patterns with the cords, but should be easy to
figure out listening to the song


The intro/chorus is based on a little pattern with Dsus2 Asus4 and G that goes something like this:
(You can improvise a picking pattern or just strum)

Chorus:
Follow Fig. 1 (x4)

        I wish I could cry on demand,

        The tears won't come out.

Fig. 2

Follow Fig. 2 (x3)

      I've been shaking, shaking in my boots
      Every time I hear my telephone

      ring, it can't possibly be you,
      You never call,
      Not since my little accident.

Pre-Chorus:

      Bb         D      Gm
      I didn't mean to cause any trouble
      Bb         D          Gm  F  Eb
      I didn't know we were so serious
      Bb         D            Gm
      Yeah, I didn't mean to burst our bubble
              Eb             F
      It can only float for so long

Verse:
Follow Fig. 2 (x3)

      Now I realise, I realise they were wrong,
      Cause what happens in Vegas,
      Don't take very long,

      To travel accross continents,
      And onwards overseas,
      Onto our little island,
      To our city, our home,
      But

Pre-Chorus:

      Bb         D      Gm
      I didn't mean to cause any trouble
      Bb         D          Gm  F  Eb
      I didn't know we were so serious
      Bb         D            Gm
      Yeah, I didn't mean to burst our bubble
              Eb             F
      It can only float for so long


Chorus:
Follow Fig. 1 (x4)

        Sometimen I wish I could cry on demand,
        Boo Hoo, Boo Hoo
        Given all these troubles on my mind,
        The tears won't come out.


Now a short interlude with the verse pattern but extending the G instead of going back to F
