Intro: Play E at standard 16ths until he starts singing, listen to song for the 
strumming pattern, really simple and constant throughout the song.

E
Downright hopelessness

When the wrath of consequence comes
A
Knocking on that old front door
    B
And we count the ways

the seconds that fall into place with
A
the emptiness don't hold the phone
  E
I know some are counting on

God above or methadone
   A
to kill the wake and take away the pain
  B
I feel for the lost and empathize the cost
       A                    A (let ring)
For calamity from what I've seen

            E                B
Open up and wail Open up and cry
               C#m                   A2
We are not the type and far young to die
             E                      B
In a rattled cage heads against the wall
                  C#m
Through dangerous nights
             A2                B2     A2, G#, F#
No more lullabies, open up and wail

E
We've got what it takes
                                A
Everything that needs to make a fighting chance
                        B
At carrying the load of falling day to day
                               A
A gruesome cold reality square in the nose
                A (let ring)
Bleeding to the toes

            E                B
Open up and wail Open up and cry
               C#m                   A2
We are not the type and far young to die
             E                      B
In a rattled cage heads against the wall
                  C#m
Through dangerous nights
             A2
No more lullabies
            E2               B
Open up and wail Open up and cry
               C#m                   A2
We are not the type and far young to die
             E2                     B
In a rattled cage heads against the wall
                  C#m
Through dangerous nights
             A2                B2 (slowing tempo)
No more lullabies, open up and wail
            E (let ring)
Open up and wail

Thanks...
