**Note C chord can be played as a Cadd9 and A can be played as an A7 for a little variety
 Bridge has G, A and A# as root notes - think these sound better as power chords (explained below)
on this particular song.  This song is typical Staind tuning, ie. half step down.

Verse 1

Dm9         C                    F
I'm not very good at just paying attention
Dm9                 C                           F
I'm not very good at remembering things that you say
Dm9         C                F
I'm not very good at persuing redemption
Dm9                 C                          F    A
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play

Chorus

Dm9     C     F          A     Dm9
It's the way I am, you'll never change
C         F      A    Dm9
The way I am, or re arrange
C         F         A    Dm9
The way I am, just let me be
C         F            A    Dm9
The way I am, it's the way I am

Dm9         C                    F

Verse 2 and 3 - Same as Verse 1

Bridge  (all power chords - same pattern repeated)

G                         A
I'm not very good at just paying attention
Bb/Bb
I'm not very good at remembering things
G                        A
I'm not very good at pursuing redemption
Bb/Bb                                           G
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play

When I'm trying so hard just to beat you
I'm not really good at controlling my fate
I'm not really good at controlling my anger
I'm not really good at subduing my hate
I'm not really good [x3]

Power Chords:
G - e string 3rd fret, a string 5th fret, d string 5th fret
A - keep fingers in same pattern as G and move up two frets
