Notes:
The Dm* indicates to play a Dm while doing a quick hammer-on/pull-off
of the 1st string, 3rd fret with pinky (listen to the recording).
Also, their little riff (for a second guitar) during the chorus
and end of the song is as follows:
Riff: e|--5-5----5-5-6-5---
B|---6------6--------
Tuning: standard
Key: F
Intro:

Chorus:
[Gm]How bad, how good, does it need to [F]get? [C] (Riff)
[Gm]How many losses, how much re[F]-gret? [C] (Riff)
[Gm]What chain reaction would cause an [F]effect? [C] (Riff)

Bridge:
[A]Are you so upright, you can't be [Dm]bent?

If [C]not for the good, why risk [Gm]falling?
Why risk [C]falling?

If [F]everything you [C]think you know
[Dm]Makes your life un[Bb]-bearable
Would you [F]change? [C] Would you [Dm*]change? [Bb]
