These are the chords he is fingerpicking throughout the song
He plays the low E string with his thumb, and keeps the high e and B strings open,
sometimes adding additional notes with his index fingers in G and F chords.


[Intro]

Am G F Em

[Verse 1]

              Am
this keeps on happening
                  G
this keeps coming out
               F
this keeps on happening
           Em
what am I to doubt?
             Am
where’s this holiday?
          G
polishing the door
              F
scrubing the stain away
          Em
I still see more



[Verse 2]

               Am
this keeps on rolling in
                 G
this keeps your hands tied
                F
this keeps your courage dim
                  Em
this keeps your pride brewing like a storm
                Am
this keeps you over the skin
                G
this keeps you under control
                F
this keeps you out of your plan
                 Em
this takes you out of the knowledge that you were before


F Em


[Chorus]

           F
I am not to blame for this

just a little bit
      Em
no, it’s all because of me  x2




[Verse 3]
*overdrive on*

              Am
this keeps on happening
             G
this keeps coming true
             F
this keeps on passing me by
             Em
this keeps on having me lose
              Am
this keeps on taking me in
              G
this keeps on punching through the skin
              F
this keeps on walking out on me
              Em
this keeps on tying me down



[Chorus]

           F
I am not to blame for this

just a little bit
     Em
no, it’s all because of me  x3

Am
    ...because of me
G
    ...because of me
F
    ...because of me
Em
    ...because of me
