Bad Diary Days CHORDS
by Pedro the Lion
Standard Tuning
Kind of an acoustic take on this track, obviously sounds plenty different from the
actual song.
I've tabbed it out to mimic the same melody as in the the actual song, the strumming
will have to be a bit different and seeing as I don't know the names of all the variations
of chords i'll just give the main chord and give you the formation as how I play it with 
the song, you can obviously mess around with what i've given- hope this is concise as
possible and sorry for not knowing the names of chords haha if it's confusing feel free 
to message me and I can show you how i play it.
CAPO on the SECOND FRET
Intro:
Am    G     F
C     C      F    G
So for the above:
C chords I play a normal C then at the end of it I mute the "e" string and play the
third fret on the "b" string
F chord I play the "e" string open, then the first fret "e" string
You can play this with the verse as well, but below, the F* I play like so: open "e"
string, then mute the "e" string and play the 3rd fret "b", then the 1st fret "b" while
still muting the "e"
Cwe barely ever Cfight
she knows that i Flove herG  
Cat first we made it every Cnight
                   F*
but i don't want to bug her about it
Dmshe just has a Amfunny way
of Gloving me
C       C       F      G
pair of Cticket stubs in the Cdesk
a movie i've Fnever seenG  
Ci probably shouldn't Cask
             F*
it sounds so accusing
Dmshe must have fAmorgot to mention
Ggirl's night out
C     C/B       Am        G
So for the above:
C chord- I mute the "e" string and play 1st fret "b", then 3rd fret "b", then play a
regular C chord
C/B chord- I mute the "e" string and play third fret "b", then 1st fret "b" then open
"b" string
Am- I play normal
G- I mute the "e" string and play the "b" string open
C      C       F       G
the Cbreakfast cereal Ctalked
more than we Fdid all day Glong
i Casked her for a Cwalk
but she had to be Fon her wayG  
Dmso i told her that Ami knew
she'd been Gstepping out
Cshe swore that C/Bshe could expAmlainG  
she Cswore that it wouC/Bld not happen agAmainG  
Cshe swore that C/Bshe could exAmplainG  
Cwe both knew her C/Bwords were iAmn vain
So it keeps on going as: C   C/B    Am    G
How I play it with the chords is as so:
C chord- 3rd fret "e" to 1st fret "e" to normal C chord
C/B chord- mute "e" string and play 3rd fret "b", then normal C/B chord still muting the
"e" string, then playing the "b" string open still muting the "e" string
Am chord is normal
G chord is normal.

Standard Tuning

Kind of an acoustic take on this track, obviously sounds plenty different from the

actual song.

I've tabbed it out to mimic the same melody as in the the actual song, the strumming

will have to be a bit different and seeing as I don't know the names of all the variations

of chords i'll just give the main chord and give you the formation as how I play it with

the song, you can obviously mess around with what i've given- hope this is concise as

possible and sorry for not knowing the names of chords haha if it's confusing feel free

to message me and I can show you how i play it.
