This tab is NOT an accurate depiction of how Adam plays it.
This is just an optional 'bare bones' alternative.
These chords can be transcribed to play WITHOUT A CAPO
where:
C = E
F = A
G = Bm
Em = G#m
But even then, it is not accurate.
Unfortunately for the amateur guitar players (i.e. Myself),
Adam has been given some divine talent to turn four basic chords into
absolute beauty.
Nonetheless, enjoy the chords.
Capo:fret 4

C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) CSpouting (x32010@1)out self-evidence as proof,

C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) CFor (x32010@1)just the sight of the pyrite of your tomb,
F (133211@1) GBut (320003@1)what shames me the most my dear,
F (133211@1) CIs (x32010@1)the hate you left behind,
F (133211@1) CIn (x32010@1)the shallows of my mind,
EmAnd (022000@1)the cold out lines,
F (133211@1) CWhere (x32010@1)once you used to lay,
F (133211@1) GSo (320003@1)Ill pour out this parting glass,
F (133211@1) CAnd (x32010@1)attempt to wash my hands,
F (133211@1) COf (x32010@1)what your memory demands,
Em (022000@1) F (133211@1) CNo, (x32010@1)I never planned for things to end this way.
