The Rhythm for the song is really easy, I'm sure you can find it out yourself

Intro: 

Am, Em, Am, Em, Am, Em, Am, Em, Am    Don't take the intro as granted as single strums
                                      Figure out the rhythm. It's really easy
Am

Verse 1:

  Am                    Fmaj7
I sold my soul for the second time
         C          B   E
cos the land, don't pay me
   Am                    Fmaj7
I begged my landlord for some more time
          C                 B   E
he said "son, the bills are waiting"
    Am                       Fmaj7
My best friend called me the other night
          C           B  E
he said "man, are you crazy?"
    Am                    Fmaj7
My girlfriend told me to get a life
          C       B  E
she said boy, you lazy


Dm            Am
  But I don't mind
    Dm                                Am
as long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
Dm        Am
  I'll be fine
        F7
If you give me a minute, a man's got a limit
   G                       E		E
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it

Am, Em, Am, Em, Am, Em, Am, Em, Am

   Am                   Fmaj7
I lost my faith in the summertime
        C         B    E
cos it don't stop raining
    Am                 Fmaj7
The sky all day is as black as night
         C      B  E
but I'm not complaining
   Am                  Fmaj7
I begged my doctor for one more line
         C        B    E
he said son words fail me
   Am                     Fmaj7
It ain't your place to be killing time
        C        B7  E
I guess i'm just lazy
