Capo 3

All of the chords in brackets are optional. Kevin often plays them in his live performances.
The chords are pretty straightforward. Just to make things easier...
C/G is 332010
B/F# is 224442
C/B is x20010 (It's just a bass walk down from C to Am)

C/G                    Em
Your crooked days come bundled up in bunches
F                      C/G  B
break your brain like a branch
C/G                   Em
And push you out here asking after something
F                       C/G
you should know I don't have

            (C/B)      Am       F       C/G
'Cause If I had it you wouldn't have to ask
    (C/B)       Am       F       C/G
If I had it you wouldn't have to ask

C/G                Em
Later on, when you bargain with your mirror
        F (Fm)                 C/G
and you ask "is it really that bad?"

           (C/B)      Am       F       C/G
Well if it wasn't you wouldn't have to ask
      (C/B)      Am       F       Dm D7 (OR
D if you so choose)
If it wasn't you wouldn't have to ask

F             C
How could you know if you didn't?
F              C             G                  F
What's left to say when your tongue's turned to ash?
                    C (OR Fm)
I'd tell you you're fine and forgiven
       Am       F       C/G
So you wouldn't have to ask

Interlude
C/G Em F C/G B
C/G Em F C/G

C/G                Em
Shoot what's left, slip inside your sinner's smile
F       (Fm)     C/G
Another man in a mask

       (C/B)        Am       F      C/G
If you faced it you wouldn't need a mask
       (C/B)        Am       F      C/G
If you meant it you wouldn't need a mask
          (C/B)        Am       F      C/G
If I could fix you you wouldn't have to ask
          (C/B)         Am       F       C/G
B C D F G
If I could help you you wouldn't have to ask


The last chord progression can be in open or barre chords, depending on your preference.
