The first bass (keyboard actually) riff is this:
-----------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|-5--5---5--5--1--1--------5--5--5---5--1-------------------|--------------------3--1------------------3--1-------------|
And then the guitar and weird keyboard stuff comes in.
The main guitar riff is this (palm mute the 6th string notes)
-----------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|-7-----7-7-----7-----7-7-----------------------------------|-7-----7-7-----7-----7-7-----8-----8\------3--1------------|-5-----5-5-----5-----5-5-----8-----8\------3--1------------|---0-0-----0-0---0-0-----0-0-8-8-8-8\------3--1------------|
Play this through the verse and between verses and choruses.
Sometimes there's palm muted open 6th string notes instead
of the D power chords.
The chorus part is this:
-----------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|-----7--7-7--------------5--5-5--3-3-3--3-3----------------|-----5--5-5--------------3--3-3--1-1-1--1-1----------------|-----5--5-5--------------3--3-3--1-1-1--1-1----------------|-5-5-5--5-5-6x, then-3-3-3--3-3--1-1-1--1-1----------------|
Lyrics:
(verse 1)
The past few years have been so trying
Between the drugs and the drinking and the touring
And in my eyes I'm stabilized
And all I need is you, someone who understands
(chorus)
I know you now, the shortest yet
And we've just met
I thought that you'd be different, then again
You came off strange but still the same as what I know
I try and try and then I'm alone again
(verse 2)
Now my life's become a challenge
Because my confidence has been decreased profoundly
And in my mind I realize
I'm stuck on a worthless hill, with no one who understands
(repeat chorus)
(verse riff interlude)
(repeat chorus)
(outro with guitar playing chorus part)
