Changed all D chords to Dm...

The fingerpicking in this one is pretty simple..

otherwise just bash out the chords, listen to the song

for the correct timing..

Am X 0 2 2 1 0

C X 3 2 0 1 0

G 3 2 0 0 3 3

F 1 3 3 2 1 1

D X 5 7 7 6 5

C/B X 2 2 0 1 0

Am C G repeat

Am

I got a faulty parachute

C G

I got a stranger's friend

Am

An exciting change in

C G

My butchers blend

Am

A symbol on the ceiling

C G

With the flick of a switch

Am

Yeah my new found hero

C G

And the enemy's ditching

F

Am C G

Well somebodies something was left in a room

Am C G

And now that its gone well of course we assume

Am C G

Somebody else needed something so bad

Am C G

They took everything somebody had

F

C C/B Am

Losing hope is easy

Dm G

When your only friend is gone

Dm G

And every time you look around

Dm G C C/B

Well, it all, it all just seems to change

Am C G

Am

The mark was left

C G

Man it's never the same

Am

Next time that you shoot

C G

Make sure that you aim

Am C G

Open windows with passing cars

Am

A brand new night

C G F

With the same old stars

C C/B Am

Losing hope is easy

Dm G

When your only friend is gone

Dm G

And every time you look around

Dm G C C/B

Well, it all, it all just seems to change

Am C G

Am

Feed the fool

C G Am

A piece of the pie

C G Am

Make a fool of his system

C G Am

Make a fool of his mind

C G Am

Give him bottles of lies

C G Am

And maybe he'll find

C G Am

His place in heaven

C G Am

Cause he might just die

F

C C/B Am

Losing hope is easy

Dm G

When your only friend is gone

Dm G

And every time you look around

Dm G C C/B

Well, it all, it all just seems to change

C C/B Am

But hanging on is easy

Dm G

When you've got a friend to call

Dm G

When nothings making sense at all

Dm G C C/B

You're not the only one that's afraid of change

Am C G

repeat [x2] then bass outro
