*So, this is my first submission here. I LOVE this band. I'm fairly confident about
these chords, based on seeing it played live (online) and in the music video. I got the
lyrics from a website, but they seem accurate enough to me. I hope you enjoy it (and
please correct what you think is wrong!)

The basic chord progression is G, Fmaj7, C. Later I believe it changes for one little
bit to to Dm, Am, C, G.
You can play around with the strumming of the G chord to occasionally lift off the 5th
string, playing a Gadd9 sort of chord.

She's had enough she sadly sung:
Fmaj7CG
"We're no longer young, we're lazy and lithe,
Fmaj7C
and our age makes us dumb.
GFmaj7C
Don't call on me, paltering and pale,
GFmaj7C
With sin on your mind, and dirt under your nails."
DmAmCG
Well, he holds to a vow just because.
DmAmCG
Lamenting a love that never was.

It's a thing that's never tested or tried.
DmAmCG
In a June that up and bloomed and quickly died.

At last she's never convinced and won't stay the night.
