This sounds right with the song, but if you want to play it differently or switch 
chords around, do whatever you think sounds better. This is the way that sounds the best to me.

Intro: Em, G, D, Am x2

Em
Don?t give a shit about it
G
Curl up, I start to doubt this 
D                         Am
Something has died in me today 
Em 
I need some air around me
G
Claw walls until my nails bleed 
D                          Am
Don?t seal my coffin shut today

Am
Coffin nails 
     C
So hard to pull 
Am      C   D    Em
How can I break free?

Em 
From the ties that hold you down
G
From the grips of loneliness 
Am                              C               D
Theres something missing in my life that I'm running after 
Em
Never meant to be held down 
G
All I need is home right now 
Am                              C               D
Theres something missing in my life that I'm running after.


Em
Self-doubt breaks down my resolve 
G
It cripples a part of my soul
D                             Am
And masterfully I'll hide my pain 
Em
Dead eyes, a hollow smile
G
Pitch black, my vision is gone 
D                             Am
And masterfully I'll hide my pain. 

Am
Coffin nails 
    C
so hard to pull 
Am      C   D    Em
how can I break free?


Em 
From the ties that hold you down
G
From the grips of loneliness 
Am                              C               D
Theres something missing in my life that I'm running after 
Em
Never meant to be held down 
G
All I need is home right now 
Am                              C               D
Theres something missing in my life that I'm running after.

These coffin nails
            C
Are keeping me
Eb               F
from the only thing I love 
Eb                F
This monster is holding me
Eb   F   G   Am 
How will I break 


Em 
From the ties that hold you down
G
From the grips of loneliness 
Am                              C               D
Theres something missing in my life that I'm running after 
Em
Never meant to be held down

All I need is home right now 
Am                              C               D
