This song’s actually played on a bass, so in reality most of the ‘chords’ are actually single notes. But you can get a reasonably similar sound by just busting out the good ol’ power chord (i.e. root and fifth, no third). So when you read E in this chord chart, play Two bars of E with a hammer-on for the intro and main riff – to get the rhythm, just listen to the record to figure it out (ba dum ching!) Nothing here to see, just a kid like me Trying to cuss and see, trying to figure it out Nothin’ better to do, when I'm stuck on you And still I'm here, trying to figure it out Getting hard to sleep, but it is in my dreams But it's killing me, to try and figure it out Nothing better to do, when I'm stuck on you And still I'm here, trying to figure it out X 2 I'll let it go 'cause I won't see you later and I'm not allowed to talk it out I said I'll come, I'll promise I won't show but I see you trying to figure it out I promise you, I'll take a bet on you but you didn't know I planned it out - A x3 I said I'll go, yeah, I won't see you later and I'm not allowed to figure it out Nothing here to see, just a kid like me Trying to cuss and see, trying to figure it out Nothin’ better to do, when I'm stuck on you And still I'm here, trying to figure it out Getting hard to sleep, but it is in my dreams But it's killing me, to try and figure it out Nothing better to do, when I'm stuck on you And still I'm here, trying to figure it out I'll let it go 'cause I won't see you later and I'm not allowed to talk it out I said I'll come, I'll promise I won't show but I see you trying to figure it out I promise you, I'll take a bet on you but you didn't know I planned it out - A x3 I said I'll go, yeah, I won't see you later and I'm not allowed to figure it out solo x 2 and then a few big hits on E to finish
