Hey everybody. This is my first contribution to Ultimate Guitar, but I've
been transcribing songs for years. I normally take chords from this site and
fix them for my own personal use, but this time I thought I'd put my hard 
work to use.

This song in particular has some great tab already out there but I looked and
found no decent chords for it (my personal favorite medium for sheet music).
Here's my attempt. Should be pretty close. If you want the exact lines for
the guitar part check out some tabs on this site.

The chords here are semi tricky depending on your personal experience. I'm
posting up to 3 different versions of the chords. The first is the general
chord shape (i.e. standard Em7). The second is the alternate version - 
essentially as close as I could get to what the artist is actually playing.
The third is the simplified version for beginners (i.e. Gmaj7 ---> G).

This is a great song, hope everyone enjoys it!

Gmaj7     D7        Gmaj7     D7
I want to know your plans 
Gmaj7     D7            Gmaj7     D7        
and how involved in them I am.
Gmaj7  D7     Gmaj7     D7        
When I go to sleep for good 
Am7           Dsus4
will I be forgiven?

                Am7 Cmaj7/B  C
And If you want roses 
                    G  C  G
you can go buy a bouquet.
                Am7 Cmaj7/B  C 
If that just won't cut it, 
		Em7 Gmaj7 Em7
well what can I say?

            Cadd9      Em7       G              Am7
You're what keeps me believing the world's not gone dead,
Cadd9          Em7          G          Am7
Strength in my bones put the words in my head. 
          Cadd9       Em7       G       Cadd9
When they pour out to paper, it's all for you.
                        G        C          Em       D
'Cause that's what you do. 
                G  C  Em   D
That's what you do.

(same chords as verse 1)
I want to know your fears 
from your feet to the back of your ears
and when they raise the landing gear
will your heart stay here?

(same chords as pre-chorus 1)
If you could forgive me
for being so brash, well you... 
you could hit me or whip me
I'd savor each lash.

[Repeat Chorus]

Em       Am7add4
No more fighting.
     G/B       Cadd9         G
this is only a waste of our time 
Em                   Am7add9
'cause soon we'll be leaving.
Cadd9              Cmaj7add9
Will this strength still be mine?

[Intro Riff]
G       C     Em   D    G     C      Em     D
I'll look out for you 'til I die, 'til I rot.
G     C     Em    D      G     C      D    C
I'll remember you 'til I die, until I rot.
