The little bass note walkdown that 
makes this song special is simply:

To add that last layer of finesse, 
make sure you hit the root of each 
chord before
strumming the whole chord...mmmmmmm 
delicious.

I'm gonna miss you

    G (G-F#-E walkdown) Em  A7
I'm gonna miss you when you're gone

Don't talk about the end
        B/G             B

thing
Continues after the ad

Goes away"

She said, "Friend...


Chorus:
        D
All along
                G               Em
Thought I was learning how to take
        A7              D
How to bend not how to break
        G               Em
How to live not how to cry
            Em          A7        
But really I've been learning how 
    C
to die
             G             D    G 
(G-F#-E walkdown) Em  A7
I've been learning how to die"

Hey everyone
      A7            D   G (G-F#-E 
walkdown) Em  A7
I've got nowhere to go
     D          G (G-F#-E walkdown) 
Em
The grave is lazy
        A7               D      G 
(G-F#-E walkdown) Em  A7
And he takes our bodies slow

        B/G           B
Don't talk about the end

thing
        B
Goes away"

She said, "Friend...

All along

How to bend not how to break

How to live not how to cry
            Em          A7

to die
