Artist : Gavin DeGraw
Album : Sweeter
Song : Candy

This song is really fun and easy to play. Its the same progression until the bridge and 
the outro. I have the basic chords for the outro. I think he uses some piano inversions possibly.
Also In the verses i noticed that on the piano he will add a note to lead to the next chord. 
it sounds like the 4 or possibly the 2 of that specific chord scale.
here it is. enjoy and have fun :)

Intro : E   B/E  A/E  B/E  (if using guitar you can just play the chords without the E underneath)


E              B              C#m               A             A   A
Remember the day you came to me and said you found the truth?
And I turned away and told you should take another look?
E              B           C#m   A
You said you'd see what's going on
I know you trust but something's wrong

    E       B          C#m
We have our lives to bear
        A
Our bags to burden
But we just buy and we wear
The plastic version of
Love, hope, understanding
But we can't survive on candy

Red carpet ride
Can take your mind
Away from anything
And I wanna die
At every mention of "celebrity"
Like "who's doing who"
Just how and where
Long as it's not you
I just don't care

We have our lives to bear
Our bags to burden
But we just buy and we wear
The plastic version of
Love, hope, understanding
But we can't survive on candy

C#m           A                  E          B
Running far away from all your serious concerns
I know you've learned to you use your fairytales
To get you through the hurt
Who's falling? We're falling
And there's just no climbing back
So I'm slowin', I'm stallin'
While I'm under full attack


We have our lives to bear
Our bags to burden
But we just buy and we wear
The plastic version of
Love, hope and understanding
But we can't survive on candy
On candy
On candy
On candy
We can't survive, can't survive on candy


Outro : E   B   Bm   A
