I personally like to hit the transition button to -3 and use capo on third.
[Verse 1]
Bb
Can I have a moment of your time?
              Cm7
Just a single second so you see
                                     Gm
That, indeed, we'll be leaving you behind
                Eb
Far across that line
Bb
Turn it up so you can hear the bells
                     Cm
Crashing through the clouds as it rain down the drain
                Gm                  Eb     Cm
We know all too well, it's a living hell
[Pre-Chorus]
Eb
Careful what you say and who you say it, who you say it to
Eb
Careful what you say and who you say it to
[Chorus]
          Gm
Maybe you talk too much
             F      Bb      Eb             Cm
And you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
        Gm
You can blame bad luck
             F      Bb      Eb             Cm
But you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
Gm
 When all is said and done
F            Bb
 You need to tie your tongue
Eb                           Cm
 Cause when you spit on everyone
Gm                               F      Bb      Eb             Cm       Bb
You are, you are you know you're asking for it, asking for it, asking
[Verse 2]
Bb
Caught up in the gutter once again
                      Cm7
Thrashing through the mud, throwin' lies, cuttin' ties
                 Gm
Til the sidewalk ends
                Eb     Cm
And the truth begins
Bb
Power through the point of no return
           Cm
Famously deranged, all the same hope you change
                      Gm
If the world is gonna turn
                   Eb    Cm
It's none of my concern
[Pre-Chorus]
Eb
Careful what you say and who you say it, who you say it to
Eb
Careful what you say and who you say it to
[Chorus]
          Gm
Maybe you talk too much
             F      Bb      Eb             Cm
And you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
        Gm
You can blame bad luck
             F      Bb      Eb             Cm
But you were asking for it, asking for it, asking

 When all is said and done

Gm                               F      Bb      Eb             Cm
You are, you are you know you're asking for it, asking for it, asking
