(For a)
D A
For a while there, it was rough
E F#m
But lately, I've been doin' bet-ter
D A
Than the last four cold De-cem-bers
E
I re-call
D A
And I see my fam-'ly ev-'ry month
E F#m
I found a girl my par-ents love
D
She'll come and stay the night
A E
And I... think I might have it all
D A
And I thank God eve-'ry day
E Fdim7 F#m
For the girl He sent my way
D A
But I know the things He gives me
E
He can take a-way
D A
And I hold you ev-'ry night
F#m7 E D
And that's a feeling I wan-na get used to
Bm7
But there's no man as terrified
E7
As the man who stands to lose you...

These beautiful things that I've gotNotes:
Beginners can play all the open position chords, and you can replace the F#m with F#m7 which is technically a barre chord, but a very easy one... see charts above.
The Fdim7 may look a little scary but it is very easy to play. The xx3434 is charted, but the xx0101 inversion sounds great as well.
6/8 time represents 6 eighth-note beats per bar
After the change in time signature, you can play power chords where distortion occurs - 6 down-strokes per bar.
The Power Chords that come into play over-ride the following:
A → A5
D → D5
E → E5

Great song, great artist!
