don't have the lyrics, but here is how you play it. capo 4
main riff
e-3-3----------
b-0-0---------
g-0-0-0-0-0-
d-0-0-0-2-4-9
a-2-2-2-0-0-x
E-3-3---------7 then a c chord
That riff plays throughout all of the verses and then the chorus is just g-d-c
The bridge, the part that seth sings goes:
Em, C/G, G, D (with pinky on 4th fret of d string), C/G, G
he plays that part twice.
if someone posts the lyrics i can match them up with tab, i just don't feel like typing up the lyrics

It's the skin and bones that keeps me on the road,
Shoulder blades of a beast that haunts my soul,
Wandering lonely and scared,
I've lived the tragedy i've shared
It's quick to grab you in but hard to shake,
It gives but doesn't match how much it takes,
Growing stronger and loud,
I lived it but now i'm wanting out
I will post the rest when i figure it out. This should be a good basis for you though!
It’s the skin and bones that keep me on the road
The shoulder blades of a beast that haunts my soul
Wandering lonely and scared
I live the tragedy I share
It’s quick to drag you in but hard to shake
It gives but doesn’t match how much it takes
Growing stronger and loud
I lived it but now I’m wanting out
I built the fence, I hung the sign
Blood red letters say "keep in mind where I’ve been, so don’t come in"
But how long can you live in shame
And drop a life-long curse on your own last name?
Trouble is I’m used to it
It’s the questions that keep me turning back
To see those rumors turn to fact
Wandering lonely and scared
I live the tragedy I share
I built the fence, I hung the sign
Wine red letters say "keep in mind where we’ve been, so don’t come in"
But how long can we live in shame
And drop a life-long curse on our own last name?
The trouble is we’re used to it
The trouble is we’re used to it
The trouble is we're used to it
It’s the tin and boards that keep me goin' home
But it’s who I am that won’t let me alone
Growing stronger and loud
Growing stronger and loud
Growing stronger and loud

Give the love you find until it's gone
AWESOME!! ok Zach, get to it
It’s the skin and bones that keep me on the road
The shoulder blades of a beast that haunts my soul
Wandering lonely and scared
I live the tragedy I share
It’s quick to drag you in but hard to shake
It gives but doesn’t match how much it takes

decide what to be and go be it.
Thanks Zach! That's fun to play.
I hear an Am in the chorus:
Em C/G
I built the fence, I hung the sign
G Am C/G G
Blood red letters say "keep in mind where I’ve been, so don’t come in"
And on that C chord after the riff, he'll sometimes drop to a Cmaj7, so
E - 0 0
B - 1 0
G - 0 0
D - 2 2
A - 3 3
E - x x
Fun!
