I. MUST. HAVE. THEM.

Fooling around, I thought, Am-C-Am-F (type of thing), but I don't know, if anyone has it figured out, please post! Thank you.

off the top of my head i'd say,

Capo 1

Verse/chorus: Em G D C or Am

but i could be wrong. and i'm uncertain about the bridge

i knew there was an A in there somewhere, but im pretty sure I played it along with the actual song, and i didnt use a capo. maybe im losing my mind, I'll have to double check when i go home.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, my friends. This will give me something to go on, I'll try it and let you know. I'm sure you were right. I knew it was minor chords, but my ear is horrible, something I'm right on, most times, WAY OFF! THANK YOU! I LOVE THIS SONG FOR SO MANY REASONS!

A capo sounds right to me, but who the hell am I? Did you check it? When I play along without a capo, it sounds off-key... The chords are spot on, though, at least, it sounds, to me... But on an acoustic guitar, it doesn't have the same "omph" as the recorded version...probably because of the "reverb" and the drums being essential.. How do you play it, strumming wise? I mean, do you strum or do you pick any parts? I strum and I'm already bored with it, trying to think of how I can make it sound better on the acoustic... any ideas, nugzey, pashernate or anyone else?

those chords word great but you have to capo fret one to play with the song.

oh sorry i didnt see this before. yeah, you were right about the capo. and i only strum cuz im honestly not really that great at guitar. i dont know how it you could make it sound less boring. its just one of those songs with fairly predictable chords, but somehow still makes a good song when its all put together.
