No capo. Use power chords (i think mal is using power chords in the videos I've watched).
Another thing, all E chords are played on the twelth fret unless it says "low e",then play an open e chord

Dbm

No capo. Use power chords (i think mal is using power chords in the videos I've watched).

Another thing, all E chords are played on the twelth fret unless it says "low e",then play an open e chord

5,771

it’s been two and one quarter weeks

since the week I was first gone

Dbm

it’s not that long

its not that long

and when I get to you,

make everything alright

don’t want to have to fight

to hold you late at night

Dbm

but I just might

I just might

now the voices in my head are loud

Dbm

I’ve said too much

can’t face this crowd

I cannot put the words back

in my mouth

how I hoped that you

would understand

Dbm

when it comes from you

it’s twice as bad

you’re the worst I ever had

got the worst I ever had

out of me

Dbm A

out of me,

Dbm B

out of me,

Dbm B A E

nothing to eat

so-

happy new year,

Washington

Dbm

I never learned

to hold my tongue

I wish I could

I would play dumb

with you

and all these nights

I’ve spent alone

Dbm

in front of you

I should have known

the things we pay

A E

to get back what we own

5,772

it will be at least another week

until I make it back to you

Dbm

and if I do

if I do

we can fashion a rope

from all of my regrets

how I saw you

in every person that I met

Dbm

I’ll let you tie me to the bed

to the bed

‘cause I’m not as strong

as I am scared

Dbm

I’ll sit for you

in the wooden chair

you don’t have to hold me down

I’ll help you cut my hair myself

Dbm A

out of you,

Dbm B

out of you,

Dbm B A E

there’s nothing sweet

happy new year,

Washington

Dbm

I never learned

to hold my tongue

I wish I could

I would play dumb

i would

and all these nights

I’ve spent alone

Dbm

in front of you

I should have known

the things we pay

A E B

to get back what we own

a Folsom man

with just one fear

Dbm

I don’t want to die

with no one knowing

I was here

I still hear that in my ears

A E B

low

I still hear that in my ears

so Massachusetts,

and then New York

Dbm

it’s gonna take

a little work

F# A

to get back to the place I was

low E

before

5,773

finally

out of the eater

you got

something you could eat

and

Dbm B A E

was it me?

Dbm B A

tie me to the rock

Dbm B A

tie me to the rock

see what

F# A E

low

I’ve got

so happy new year,

Washington

Dbm

I never learned

to hold my tongue

I tried

so hard

but now I’m done

with it
