Notes:
- Use barre A for the verses, open A for the chorus.
- For the last D in the chorus ("I'm locked up..."), strum it once and let it ring.
- Change back to barre chords beginning with the A immediately after the chorus (on "try").
- For verse 3, use open chords, except the last A/C#m/Bm sequence.
- Again, listen to the song to hear how Marc plays it.
