starting at the 7th fret, up through the 5th, 4th and ending at the 2nd.
Intro/main chord progression:

D E A
A E D

Verse 1:

DI'm getting Eused to Ait
ANow every Etime it Dhits
EMy heart Aquits
AI wear a Elittle Dsmile
DWhile swalElowing Athe dirt
ABut underEneath my Dshirt
EMy heart Ahurts
(Intro chords)
Verse 2:
--------
AIt's murder Ebut it's Dnice
DGetting Eaway with Ait
AThe time you Elet it Dslip
EI liked Ait
AMy fingers Eand my Athumbs
DOvercome Eme with Amirth
ABut underEneath my Dshirt
EMy heart Ahurts
(strum A for 4 bars leading into chorus)
Chorus:

Repeat main chord progression 4x to fade, with no lyrics except "My heart hurts" at the
correct. May be missing a chord in there. Anyways, this is pretty close, if not 100%.
