Thatll Be The Day Chords

(ver. 1)
Streetlight Manifesto
This song is pretty sweet.  Almost the entire thing is skat strumming.  You 
should definitely listen to the song while playing it, it makes it a whole lot 
easier.  Watch the chords on the chorus they change in weird spots FYI.  I'm 
kinda new at the whole tab write out thing so tell me how it sounds.

everybody's speaking using words they can't define

you brag of your indecency like a monkey beats its chest
C                 G                A                E

and i don't care who you are or what you've done
C          G               A                 E
everybody equals out when all the songs are sung
E                  C                     G             D
we will sing them loud and we will sing them until we pass
C                      G                A                E

C        G                        D
oh your back is bleeding, you're bleeding on me
E                            C
that'll be the day when the sun falls down
     G                        D                  E....C....G....D
the angels may weep but i'll hear no sounds but hey

Back to intro.

Verse 3:

E            C                 G                D
i take that back i won't stop singing when i'm dead
C                   G                    A            E
i'll sing from the great beyond, i will echo in your head
E           C                 G                 D
and if you think taking your life will set you free
C               G                    A            E
you've got something to learn, it's called humility

     G           D                 E         C
and everybody's missing you: from apathy to sympathy
          G             D     E   C
this new found love is new to me
G                   D                E   C
and i can hear you laughing in your grave
G             D
everyone's forgiven

now we're saved
G             D
every single sin absolved
E                 C
what's the point denying
         G               D        E   C          G                   D
