The chord shapes take a little getting used to. Unfortunately there's no great video footage to
demonstrate, so I'll try to explain.
Normal E shape; move your middle finger to the 2nd fret E string
to play the F# note and mute the A string; use your index and middle for the Asus2 and use your ring
or pinky to fret the 4th stret E string for the G#. It's okay if you end up muting the A string
on the A/G# chord, it sounds pretty much the same either way.
Don't forget to tune a half-step down to play along with the record.

[Intro]

E E/F# Asus2 A/G# E E/F# Asus2

(x2)

[Verse]

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Well I'm staring at a blank page

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

And I don't like writing anymore

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

The self appointed martyr, he will die

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

before he knows what he's even dying for

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Well I'm drinking from my father's flask

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

And there's something burning on my lips

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

This shit tastes just like medicine

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

but I'll take it for what it is

C#m E Bsus4 Asus2

Well I've seen my future self in stranger's eyes

C#m E Bsus4

It's strange knowing how you will die

[Interlude]

E E/F# Asus2 A/G# E E/F# Asus2

[Verse]

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

I'm sick of the voices and headaches

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

of forced attempts at empty conversation radiate

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

A wallet hidden under a cross

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Similarities too forward and obvious to think much on

C#m Bsus4 Asus2

Something's pulling me in again

C#m Bsus4 Asus2

And I think I'm losing my mind

[Pre-Chorus]

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Something's swimming in my bloodstream

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Forcing back the words you said to me

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Something's swimming in my bloodstream

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Forcing back the words you said to me

[Interlude]

C#m E Bsus4 Asus2 C#m E Bsus4

[Verse]

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Now the doctor, yes, he had to notice

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

That she was all alone staring at her wedding ring

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

On the day that her son had to leave her womb

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

Like his father, he knew how he'd deal with things

C#m E Bsus4 Asus2

On the day he left her womb tears filled her eyes

C#m E Bsus4

Because her son refused to cry

[Chorus]

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

You're swimming in my blood stream

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

You're swimming in my blood stream

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

You're swimming in my blood stream

E E/F# Asus2 A/G# E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

You're swimming in my blood stream

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

I'm like you

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

I'm like you

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

I'm like you

E E/F# Asus2 A/G#

I'm like you

[Outro]
