None of them
The song is made up of four chords that are played like this
D F#m Bm A
Halfway through playing the A chord Ryan turns it into an A7 (we are getting technical
here people. This is achieved by adding a little finger to the e string on the third fret
to make the A an A7 (please see below below). This is a fantastic little nuance that is
used a lot in Cribs songs.
A7
D F#m
With your knife and your bottle and silver spoon
Bm A
No one knows what you're going to do
D F#m Bm A
So stay away from everything that isn't true
D F#m
Cause when I hung around with someone else
Bm A
Take your anger off the shelf
D F#m Bm
And arrange it in a way that no one else could do
A
But you
D F#m
Cause if you're dying I'd like to know
Bm A
And if you're on one I need to show
D F#m
Cause you were saying you was alone
Bm A
Well there's something you need to know
D F#m
I'm sixteen and I'm really bored
Bm
"But we're not going to use you we're
D A
just scared we're gonna lose you"
D F#m Bm
Things are better when you are on board
A
I'm sure
D F#m
But if you're dying I'd like to know
Bm A
And if you're on one I need to show
D F#m
Cause you were saying you was alone
Bm A
Well there's something you need to know
D F#m
That you will always be my hero
Bm A
With the way that you're letting go
D F#m
And you were saying you was alone
Bm A
Well there's something you need to know
