Buried Myself Alive

These are the exact chords played in the song,

but I like the whole G, Cadd9 type of sound to acoustic songs.

So I redid the chords a little to my liking.

And since this song is in the key of "G" these chords sound really nice.

Hope you like it (:

Also, one little note on the chorus.

In the real song when he plays the "G" and then the octave,

I sortof do the same thing on the acoustic.

I'll play the G chord, and then when the octave is played

in the song I just strum the top two strings

to get that octave type sound. Hope this helps.

"G" "Em" "Cadd9" "D"

(Intro)

G,Em,Cadd9,D

(Verse)

G

You almost always pick the best times

Em

to drop the worst lines

Cadd9

you almost made me cry again this time

D

another false alarm

red flashing lights

G

well this time I'm not going to watch myself die

G

I think I made it a game to play your game

Em

and let myself cry

Cadd9

I buried myself alive on the inside

D

so I could shut you out

G

and let you go away for a long time

(Chorus)

G

I guess it's ok I puked the day away

Em Cadd9

I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way

D

and if you want me back

G

you're gonna have to ask

(Verse)

G

I think the chain broke away

Em

and I felt it the day that I had my own time

Cadd9

I took advantage of myself and felt fine

D

but it was worth the night

G

I caught an early flight and I made it home

(Chorus)

G

I guess it's ok I puked the day away

Em

I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way

Cadd9

and if you want me back

D

you're gonna have to ask

Em D Cadd9

nicer than that

Em D Cadd9

nicer than that

(Break) - Cadd9 the whole time. I fingerpick it personally.

Cadd9

with my foot on your neck

I finally have you

right where I want you

right where I want you

right where I want you

right where I want you

G

I guess it's ok I puked the day away

Em

I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way (your own way)

Cadd9

and if you want me back

D

you're gonna have to ask

G (Fingerpicked until the end)

nicer than that (I guess it's ok I puked the day away)

nicer than that (I guess it's better you trapped yourself in your own way)

and if you want me back

you're gonna have to ask

nicer than that

nicer
