The chords match the chords and lyrics. There are key changes to other keys. The chord sequences are created by musicians; they aren't too difficult. Standard tuning is E A D G B E for easy D chords. The original key with basic rhythms, such as guitar strumming, is used. D major chords (Dmaj7, Em7, G, F#m, D) are repeated throughout the song. A capo isn't necessary; if you want to use one or percussion (tapping), the C chords are easy. A down-stop-down strumming pattern is generally used, with a capo on the 2nd fret if desired. The C guitar chords are played as Cmaj7 Dm7 F E#m C.

[Verse1]
The cigarette smoke
Is a smell that I know
It clings to my clothes
And sees into my bones
It's a real quiet house
With the shower left on
Five beers in the fridge and the second car's gone
[Pre-Chorus]
I regret you
And how long I stayed
I send you
For not being brave, oh
[Chorus]
( * ) Tell me something honest so the
memories turn dark
You said that I made loving look easy
'Til I made it hard
Give me back my time and I will
give you back your heart
I thought that we played the perfect couple
'Til you didn't want the part
[Verse2]
Some nights can be
So fucking lonely
But it's better than begging for you
to stand up for me, honey bee
[Pre-Chorus]
I regret you
And what I let slide
I send you
For taking her side, oh
( * )
[Bridge]
It's bone-dry, bitter and hollow
You'll be miles away tomorrow
Why'd I try at all?
It's bone-dry, bitter and hollow
You will never know my sorrow
Why'd I try at all?
[Outro]
Tell me something honest so the
memories turn dark
Ooh, mm, and memories go dark
The memories go dark
The memories go dark
The memories go dark
Go dark
Go dark
