Brand New - "In a Jar"
Standard Tuning
Just the what I think the basic chords are.
The whole song does the same pattern 
of Em C Em C Em C D Am except for at the end of chorus 2 and 3.

Intro: Em C Em C Em C D Am x2

Verse1
Em
Stones in your eyes,
                 C
Stones in your eyes,
Em
Stones in your eyes,
                 C
Stones in your mouth,
Em
Stones in your ears,
                 C
Stones in your mind,
D
Stones in your eyes,
        Am
Stones in your eyes,
Em                                C
Living in a jar, think the lids the sky,
Em                                        C
You're hoping for a savior on your cross outside.
Em                                 C
Stars are just a million little fireflies,
D                                  Am
The sun is just a hole; it is the light outside.

Chorus 1
Em                  C
Now what took me so long? 
Em                 C
Ten years drowning from 
Em               C
darkness in my eyes. 
D                  Am
Where you going; let me stay tonight.

Verse 2
Em                                   C
Maybe I should rest but on the seventh day,
Em                                   C
I've created nothing and I'm wide awake,
Em                                    C
So can I tie my key to your electric kite?
D                                       Am
The rooster crowed twice and you kissed me goodnight.
Em                                    C
There's too many saviors on my cross again,
Em                                    C
I know I'm never going to be a perfect man.
Em                                   C
Everyone's an oyster with their grain of sand,
D                                      Am
I love you most and some, now it has to end.

Chorus 2
Em                   C
Now what took me so long? 
Em                  C
Ten years drowning from 
Em              C
darkness in my eyes. 
D                Am
Where you going; let me stay tonight.
C                G
Where you going; let me stay tonight.

Verse 3
Em                         
Stones in your eyes,
               C
Stones in your eyes,
Em                         
Stones in your eyes,
               C
Stones in your eyes,
Em             
Stones in your eyes,
               C
Stones in your eyes,
D                               Am
I'd run a million miles if you won first prize.

Em C Em C Em C D Am

Chorus 3
Em                    C
Now what took me so long? 
Em                  C
Ten years drowning from 
Em                C
darkness in my eyes. 
D                 Am
Where you going; let me stay tonight.
C                 G
Where you going; let me stay tonight.
Bb                F
Where you going; let me stay tonight.
