Intro

I'm not quite sure if he uses barred or open chords. anyway, sounds good both ways.
This is how I play it:


Changes: I changed the D and C chords to minor chords, thanks to [email protected]
         for this correction.

Verse (1) [I think he plays barred Chords]
===================================== 

                   G
I'm patient of this plan
               F
As humble as I can
                  G
I'll wait another day
              Dm
Before I turn away
                      G
But know this much is true
                 Cm
No matter what I do
                F
Offend in every way
                     G
I don't know what to say

Chorus (1)
===========

Pretty similar to the Intro but with slight variations

			     {                            }                            
                            He changes the rythm in this part

                 {    } <-here's also a (very) little difference to the intro

Verse (2)
============
                       G
I'm coming through the door
                      F
But they're expecting more
                  G
Of an interesting man
                    Dm
sometimes I think I can
                   G
But how much can I fake
                   Cm
I'll speak until I brake
                  F
With every word I say
                G 
Offend in every way

Verse (3)
==========
                 G
You tell me to relax
                    F
and listen to these facts
                   G
That everyone's my friend
                     Dm
And will be till the end
                        G
But I know this much is true
                 Cm
No matter what I do
                 F
No matter what I say
                G
Offend in every way
