Most of this song is actually keyboard and synthesiser. If you play this
while singing it will sound right and You should get through playing along
with the album just fine, but the fact is that it won't sound identical
because we are changing instruments. With that obvious statement out of the
way, on with the kick-ass song.
Main Riff. Start in a cadd9 position and use your index finger for the 6th
string, with your pinky playing the last note. It's easier than it sounds,
but I don't recommend picking for this as it's all over the fret board. It
sounds better if you let the notes ring out as much as possible. Note that
this is identical to the piano line after the intro.

I've been a father to you all
In spite of what you've heard
and for the most part,
I've been a perfect stranger too
In spite of wat you've heard
You've made me painfull aware
Of what you think of me
And for the most part,
O'm starting to believe it true
I put my faith in you
thats why I'm singing saying
Sorry songs I sing
To amuse myself
I need to hear your voice
Carry all my weight
Ab C F (note: This sounds weird, but If while playing along with the song F was the
chord I could find)
main riff (there are some variations and Iv'e included them at the end if you want to
them)
I've been a lover to the ones
You'd never realize
And for the most part,
I've been a liar all my life
In spite of what you've heard
a centimeter of a man
I measure up to be
And for the most part,
I might be lonely all my life
I'm lying in the bed I've made
Sorry songs I sing
To amuse myself
I need to hear your voice
Carry on
So I'm singing saying
Sorry songs I sing
To amuse myself
I need to hear your voice
Carry all my weight
I know its not to late
G (I'm not sure about this G)
your making a mistake
as before.
