This is for the "Live in Alaska" video:

NOTE that it is a lower key than the studio
version. Also, there are two main hammer-ons
that Medium Build improvises which you can
too: your middle finger on the G string
changes between F/C and Fmaj7/C; and your
index finger on the B string changes between
G and Gsus4. Mix it up based on feel and what
sounds good to you!

[Verse 1]
C/G Em F/C
So I’m crying in this minivan
C/G Em F/C
Fifteen hours from home
C/G Em F/C
And I’ve been talking shit for so damn long
Am F/C
Cause I guess, I never thought I’d go
 
[Verse 2]
C/G Em F/C
We used to get drunk at the Applebee’s
C/G Em F/C
Talk about who we could be
C/G Em F/C
Now you got yourself a kid, bought a coffee shop
Am F/C
And I’m out here living my dumb fantasy
 
[Pre-chorus 1]
Fmaj7/C Gsus4
I ain’t leaving cause I don’t love you
Am F/C
Just gotta see if for myself
F/C Gsus4
And I’m always thinking of you
Am F/C
But if I don’t leave now, I never will
 
[Chorus 1]
C/G Em F/C
Everything I am today
C/G Em F/C
Is cause of you, cause of you, cause of you
C/G Em F/C
Everything I am today
C/G Em F/C
Is cause of you, cause of you, cause of you
 
[Verse 3]
C/G Em F/C
Driving down to the old country store
C/G Em Fmaj7/C
To buy the groom a pack of smokes
C/G Em F/C
He said, “It’s so damn good to see your face”
Am Em F/C
And I said, “Bitch, you don’t even know”
 
[Pre-chorus 2]
Fmaj7/C Gsus4
You know I left but I still love you
Am Em F/C
Just had to go and find myself
Fmaj7/C G
He ashed his cigarette and laughed in a bad rented tux
Am F/C
Said, “I got your back man and I always will”
 
[Chorus 2]
C/G Em F/C
Everything I am today

Is cause of you, cause of you, cause of you
C/G Em F/C
Everything I am today
C/G Em
Is cause of you, cause of you
 
[Bridge]
C/G
Cause of you I keep it honest
F/C
And I say what’s on my mind
C/G
Cause of you I’ve seen the Princess Bride
G
A thousand fucking times
Am
You’re the reason I play this guitar
F/C
On stage like every night
C/G G F/C
It’s cause of you, cause of you, cause of you
C/G G F/C
It's cause of you, cause of you, cause of you
