This song is basically
Dm F C Gm
Over and over
Here's how I play the intro (sounds 100% accurate)

I play that through to the end of the 1st hook (just like the recording) then when I hit V2 I start strumming
the chords as I usually play them (open chords), then for the ending go back to the intro,
this has a nice dynamic effect that really adds to the power of this song.
[Verse 1]
DmWhen I die, put my ashes in the trash bag
FI don’t care where they go
CDon’t waste your money on my gravestone
GmI’m more concerned about my soul
DmEverybody’s gon’ die
FDon’t everybody live though
CSometimes I look up to the sky
GmAnd wonder do You see us down here?
[Hook]
Oh LDmord, oh LFord, do You see us down here?
Oh LCord, oh LGmord, do You see us down here?
Oh LDmord, oh LFord, do You see us down here?
Oh LCord, oh LGmord
[Verse 2]
DmListen, yeah everybody wants change
FDon’t nobody wanna change though
CDon’t nobody wanna pray
GmTill they got something to pray for
DmNow everybody’s gon’ die
FBut don’t everybody live though
CSometimes I look up to the sky
GmAnd wonder do you see us down here?
[Hook]
Oh LDmord, oh LFord, do You see us down here?
Oh LCord, oh LGmord, do You see us down here?
Oh LDmord, oh LFord, do You see us down here?
Oh LCord, oh LGmord
[Verse 3]
It’s eaDmsy to blame God but harder to fix things
We look in the sFky like, “Why ain’t You listening?”
Watching the neCws in our living rooms on the big screens
And talking ’bout “If GGmod’s really real, then where is He?”
DmYou see the same God that you saying might not even exist
Becomes rFeal to us, but only when we dying in bed
When ya heaClthy it’s like, we don’t really care for Him then
Leave me alGmone God, I’ll call you when I need you again
Which is fDmunny, everyone will sleep in the pews
Then blame GFod for our problems like He sleeping on you
We turn our bCacks on Him, what do you expect Him to do?
It’s hGmard to answer prayers when nobody’s praying to you
DmI look around at this world we walk on
It’s a smack in the fFace, don’t ever tell me there’s no God
And if there isCn’t then what are we here for?
And what are y’all dGmoing down there? I don’t know Lord
[Hook]
Oh LDmord, oh LFord, do You see us down here?
Oh LCord, oh LGmord, do You see us down here?
Oh LDmord, oh LFord, do You see us down here?
Oh LCord, oh LGmord
Ending
DmDo You see us down here? Oh Lord
FCan You see us down here? Oh LordC  
Oh Lord, oh LGmord
GmCan You see us? Can’t You see us?

[Verse 3]

It’s easy to blame God but harder to fix things

We look in the sky like, “Why ain’t You listening?”

Watching the news in our living rooms on the big screens

And talking ’bout “If God’s really real, then where is He?”

You see the same God that you saying might not even exist

Becomes real to us, but only when we dying in bed

When ya healthy it’s like, we don’t really care for Him then

Leave me alone God, I’ll call you when I need you again

Which is funny, everyone will sleep in the pews

Then blame God for our problems like He sleeping on you

We turn our backs on Him, what do you expect Him to do?

It’s hard to answer prayers when nobody’s praying to you

I look around at this world we walk on

It’s a smack in the face, don’t ever tell me there’s no God

And if there isn’t then what are we here for?

And what are y’all doing down there? I don’t know Lord

[Hook]

Dm F

Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here?

C Gm

Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here?

Dm F

Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here?

C Gm

Oh Lord, oh Lord

Ending

Do You see us down here? Oh Lord

F C

Can You see us down here? Oh Lord

Oh Lord, oh Lord

Can You see us? Can’t You see us?
