   Would she go....                          ...a theater?


[Pre-Chorus]

(which is just a repeat of verse A with different vocals and an alternate ending)

  Em9                                        Em9
E|-----------------------0------------------|---------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------1-----------|----------------1--------1---------1---------|

A|--------5---------5---------5---------5---|--------5---------5---------5---------5------|
E|---0---------0---------0---------0--------|---0---------0---------0---------0-----------|
  'Cause the love...                         to make it...

  Em9#5/C                                    Em9#5/C
E|-----------------------0------------------|---------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------3-----------|---------------3---------3---------3---------|

D|--------4---------4---------4-------------|--------4---------4---------4---------4------|
A|---3---------3---------3---------3--------|---3---------3---------3---------3-----------|
E|------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------|
   Open wide...                                 ...no.

Repeat the first three measures of the prechorus, and go right into this

 Dsus2                      D
E|----------------0------0-h2---------------|
B|--------3-------3------3------------------|
G|--------2---------------------------------|
D|---0---------0------0---------------------|
A|------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------|
     1    +    2  e + a  3  e
But you're still alive!


[Chorus]

(Honestly the most complicated part due to its frequent chord changes and variances)

  Gsusno5                G5                    Fmaj9b5/G               D#/E
E|-----------------------0---------------------|-----------------------0-------------------|
B|----------------0--------------2-------------|----------------0--------------2-----------|
G|--------2--------------------------2--2-h4---|--------2---------------------------2------|
D|--------0---------0---------0---------0------|--------3---------3---------3----------3---|
A|---------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------|
E|---3---------3---------3---------3-----------|---3---------3---------3---------3---------|
     1    +    2  e +    3    +  a 4 e  +  a
'Cause I'm here                                 to remind you

  C7                                        D#7no5                  D#
E|------------------------------------------|-----------------------6-----------------------|
B|----------------1-------------1-----------|----------------4-------------4----------------|
G|--------3--------------3--------------3---|--------6--------------------------------------|
D|--------2---------2---------2---------2---|--------5---------5---------5--------5--5--5---|
A|---3---------3---------3---------3--------|---6---------6---------6---------6-------------|
E|------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
                                                1    +    2  e +    3    + a  4   e  +  a
of the mess...                                ...went away

Much like the prechorus, repeat the first three measure but replace the fourth measure with this

  C7                                          D#7no5                 D#
E|--------------------------------------------|----------------------6-----------|
B|----------------4--------------4------------|---4-----------4------------------|
G|--------6--------------6----------------6---|---------4------------------------|
D|--------5----------5--------5-----------5---|------5-----------5---------------|
A|---6---------6---------6------------6-------|---6--------6---------6-----------|
E|--------------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
     1    +    2  e  +   3    +   a   4   +       1  +  a  2  e  +   3   +   4
   You...                 You...                You...             ...'oughta know.
