Verse I:
   G          C2
    I'm gonna miss you
   A7sus4      D-Dsus4-D                  G-> [Repeat Intro]
    I'm gonna miss you when you're gone…
   G           C2
    She says I love you
   A7sus4     D-Dsus4-D                G-> [Repeat Intro]
   I'm gonna miss hearing your songs


Pre-Chorus:
           B5/E          B5/C           B5/E
   I said "Please, don't talk about the end
         B5/C           B5/E         B5/C
   Don't talk about how every living thing goes away"
   B5/E       Dsus4
    She said "Friend…

Chorus:
        G                   A7sus4           C2
   "All along thought I was learning how to take
          A7sus4            G
   How to bend, not how to break
   G       A7sus4            C2
    How to live, not how to cry
              D
   But really I've been learning how to die,
   F          C                     G-> [Repeat Intro]
    I've been learning how to die…"

Verse II:
   G         C2   A7sus4
    Hey everyone…
        D-Dsus4-D           G-> [Repeat Intro]
   I've got no where to go
   G            C2   A7sus4
   The grave is lazy
      D-Dsus4-D              G-> [Repeat Intro]
   It takes our bodies slow…

[Pre-Chorus and Chorus]
   F          C
   …I've been learning how to…

Outro:
   G-C2-A7sus4-D
   Die…
     G-C2-A7sus4
   Die…
   D
   I've been learning how to die
   F          C               G
    I've been learning how to…

*Note:

G [3x0033]: Your middle finger on 3rd fret and 6th string and muting 5th string, ring
pinky on 3rd fret.

Cadd9 or C2 [-3x033]: middle on 3rd fret and 5th string (mute with this finger the 4th
ring and pinky on 3rd fret.

A7sus [-02033]: index on 2nd fret and 4th string, ring and pinky on 3rd fret. (I think
just play the A string and then, the highest 3 strings). [I'm note quite sure about the
of this chord]

Dsus [--0233]: index on 2nd fret and 3rd string, ring and pinky on 3rd fret, middle in
fret, so just lift your pinky and it's D, then put it back really fast and it's Dsus. (I
that in studio version it sounds like D7, but it's a little complicated so this sounds 
too and is much easier.)

B5/E [024400]: index in the 2nd fret and 5th string, ring and pinky on 4th fret; for the
[-34400]: doing the previous chord, just press with your middle the 5th string on the
fret.
