You'll likely want to capo this song...anywhere from the 2nd fret to the 5th fret depending on which key you 
prefer.  Transpose it to your liking, I prefer playing it in F (E capo 1).
Intro:    E     A  
If Efinders were keepers, I'd still be at home   C#mTake it or leave it, I'll show you the ropes
When you Bno longer see me...     I'll be Agone
ESo much for answers, I don't have a clue    I can C#mhear ya', you're calling from outside my room
You're Bstill locked inside me...   Holding Aon
So I'll Atake what I can gBet    So I'll Atake what I can gBet
I'll Ebreak out your windows, I don't need a key   C#mShow me your doubts and I'll make you believe
Yeah, you're Bstill here to haunt me...   You ain't Agone
So I'll Atake what I can gBet    So I'll Atake what I can gBet
So if Eyou're coming Ahome     I'll be Eout on my Aown
I don't need Eyou     To give me Bback, the open Awounds
But if you Estart, to shed your Askin    Naked Eheart, wearing Athin
When you Ecall     I'll be Bhere...once Aagain
So I Atake what I can Bget       So I'll Atake what I can Bget
Outro:    E     B  A
