A Daily Anthem
--------------
This song can actually be played without capo. You just hafta know the right chords. 
Or maybe you hafta use other tuning (drop A, drop D etc.). Feel free to look for the chords. 
I find it easier for my fingers to play with capo. Besides they are simple chords. So here goes...
Capo on 8th Fret 
G     (3 2 0 0 3 3)
Gmaj9 (2 0 0 0 3 3)
Em    (0 2 2 0 0 0)
C     (0 3 2 0 1 0)
D     (0 0 0 2 3 2)
Intro:   G    Gmaj9    E    C  G  
BrGeak your neck for some substance
This is Ctemporary sanity, an exercise in vanity
So lEmong, to the oDrdinary day wrought with Gfictitious tales
Of how there's Gany other way
HoGld on to anything at all
It's a lCong way down between the summer and the fall
If I tEmold you that you're everything,D  
Would you sing alGong?C  
Would you sing alAmong?
It's a dGaily anthem
Would you sing my sGmaj9ong,
At the top of your Gmaj9lungs?
And we'll aEmll sing along,
We'll aCll sing aloGng
It's a hGalf-baked blessing
For the lessons I've lGmaj9earned,
Never Gmaj9deserved.
And we'll aEmll sing along,
We'll aCll sing alGong
Now the vCerses take hold,
A geCntle undercurrent or more yEmears to grow oldG  
Say goodCbye to the cold
And try to beCgin everytEmhing: thDere's liCfe
As we sEming yDour dGaily anthem,
Would you sing my sGmaj9ong,
At the top of your Gmaj9lungs?
And we'll aEmll sing along,
We'll Call sing aGlong
It's a hGalf-baked blessing
For the lessons I've lGmaj9earned,
Never Gmaj9deserved.
And we'll aEmll sing along,
We'll aCll sing alGong
OOGoooohhh - OoGmaj9ooohhh - OoEmooohhh - OooCoohhh   G4X

Intro:

Break your neck for some substance

This is temporary sanity, an exercise in vanity

Em D G

So long, to the ordinary day wrought with fictitious tales

Of how there's any other way

Hold on to anything at all

It's a long way down between the summer and the fall

If I told you that you're everything,

Would you sing along?

It's a daily anthem

Would you sing my song,

Gmaj9

At the top of your lungs?

And we'll all sing along,

It's a half-baked blessing

For the lessons I've learned,

Gmaj9

Never deserved.

And we'll all sing along,

C G

We'll all sing along

Now the verses take hold,

C Em G

A gentle undercurrent or more years to grow old

Say goodbye to the cold

C Em D C

And try to begin everything: there's life

Em D G

As we sing your daily anthem,

Gmaj9

Would you sing my song,
