I recommend playing this song in Eb Standard tuning, in the key of D!  These chords are 
in original key.

(F#/F is simply dropping the root of the chord one half step to serve as a step down to 
the G#7.  The same is true of the G#/C, which is easiest done by dropping the root a 
single half step.)


Intro: Bbm  F#  C#  Ab (x2)


                       Bbm      F#            C#        Ab
I'm burned out with a bright light, I wasn't ready for this.
          Bbm       F#           C#               Ab
You're adorable as hell, but I'm glancing at your wrists.
                 Bbm        F#       C#      Ab
Oh, please have faith, I can be so cavalier.
               Bbm           F#                 C#         Ab
And when they start to ask questions I'll make sure to be clear.


                  F#        F#/F         Ab7
When you see my friends, tell them hi for me.
                    C#            Ab/C               Bbm
Tell them what you think about the way you handled everything.
      F#               F#/F                   Ab7
You turned and all you left me with was this broken key.
                      Bbm  F#  C#  Ab  Bbm  
F#  C#  Ab
So tell me what you think.


                    Bbm     F#                  C#      Ab
Give it up for the long nights and all those terrible fights.
          Bbm            F#            C#         Ab
Were you honest with yourself, every version of yourself?
             Bbm         F#          C#    Ab
Did you get lost on the side of the road?
             Bbm        F#                  C#        Ab
If you keep acting this way, I swear I'll never come home.



                  F#        F#/F         Ab7
When you see my friends, tell them hi for me.
                    C#            Ab/C               Bbm
Tell them what you think about the way you handled everything.
     F#                  F#/F            Ab7
We walked along on this broken road for eternity
            C#                 Ab/C              Bbm
So give me company and help me sing this lonely melody.
      F#               F#/F                    Ab7
You turned and all you left me with was this broken key.
                      Bbm  F#  C#  Ab  Bbm  
F#  C#  Ab
So tell me what you think.


        Bbm       F#            C#        Ab
Sign me up, no regrets, make a man out of me.
        Bbm        F#                C#       Ab
And I won't say a word and I'll give all the things
         Bbm         F#           C#            Ab
That you want and I need just to give me some peace.
         Bbm          F#              C#               Ab
At the bottom of the ocean there's a place for you and me.
         Bbm            F#        C#          Ab     
    Bbm    F#
Lead the way straight ahead, you gave me the time of my life
       C#          Ab           Bbm   F#
And it cut like a knife to the bone.


(Acoustic)
                  F#        F#/F         Ab7
When you see my friends, tell them hi for me.
                    C#            Ab/C               Bbm
Tell them what you think about the way you handled everything.
    F#                       F#/F                   Ab7
So neat and clean, well the world is full of such pretty things.
                    C#   Ab/C  Bbm
So do your best for me.
