The Weepies - How You Survived The War

Note: I was a little stumped by the "You give up like every time before" line so 
I tried my best and heard a Dadd9 
but I could be horribly wrong. Anyways enjoy this beyond awesome song!!!

Intro: (keyboard fades in on Asus)

  /  x2

Verse:
                   /       
You never change your mind once it's made up
          /                /
Unless it's to crawl back on your knees

Chorus:
        /         
Is that the way you want it?
               
You get back to the wall
             /
And put your hands up
       
It's a holdup
                  
You give up like every time before
/                 
That is how you survived the war

Interlude:  /   x2

Verse(same progression):
You never multiply, all these divisions
You give yourself the least of parts
I put on my green felt hat, pack our privisions
Playing a merry Prince of Thieves

Chorus(same progression):
Is that the way you want it?
You get back to the wall
And put your hands up
It's a holdup
You give up like every time before
That is how you survived the war

Interlude: Dadd9 Dsus2/G Asus4 Asus4 x2 (kind of hold out I think on Asus4 as you 
go into the next part)

Bridge:
            /     
You're not gonna lose this one
            /     
You don't have to cut and run
            /     
I think you can choose to love and what is more
/                 
That is how you survived the war

Verse:
Now in a summer's day, spring a ripened plum
How will you live under the sun?
You follow the open road, remembering the guns
When you get lost under the trees

Chorus:
Is that the way you want it?
You get back to the wall
And put your hands up
It's a holdup
You give up like every time before
That is how you survived the war

/                 
That is how you survived the war

                   /       
You never change your mind once it's made up

End on Dsus2
