This is definitely not correct, so don't complain about that.
For starters, in the vimeo vid for this song, I think Wil actually
plays in some variation of C majorC tuning. Also, the lyrics may not be
entirely correct.

C majorC
I'm not from here so I think with my mouth,
grew up a comfortable distance from where I live now,
FF C majorC
so grab me like the animals we were always supposed to be.
C majorC
From these terrace house jungles we'll swing from the rooftops,
FF
knowing nothing of the one-way streets far underneath our feet,
C majorC
There's a life outside these bottles, there's a life right here for me
FF C majorC
But you don't have to surrender,
G+G G+G
if you don't
FF C majorC
But you don't have to surrender,
G+G G+G C majorC (intro again)
if you don't want to
C majorC
And I'll sit quiet, if I have to go home,
listening to rubber, disturbed water, and whatever was on the radio,
FF C majorC
we should be climbing chainlink fences with backpacks, nowhere to go.
C majorC
and am I satisfied or did I just come to terms with the hunger,
FF C majorC
with me all my life, made me live harder when I was younger
But you don't have to surrender,
if you don't want to
C majorC FF C majorC
You asked me if I'm drinking again,
FF C majorC
you say it like it's a good thing
FF C majorC
But you don't have to surrender,
G+G G+G FF
if you don't want to
G+G
I've got my white flag with me here just for you
(intro again)
C majorC
and the ease of repetition was filling my days,
and I was comfortably killing myself in a myriad of different ways,
FF C majorC
