    Strum Guide

    Use a folk strum for the whole song for a mellow feel.  If you’re rocking, just use it for the bridge:

     

    D   D U   U D U

    1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

    To rock the song, use this for the verse...

     

    (w/palm mute)

    D D D D D D D D

    1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

    ...and this for the chorus (no palm mute):

     

    D D D D D D D D

    1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

     

     

     

    G                D

    You change your mind

            Am              C

    Like a girl changes clothes

          G      D

    Yeah you, PMS

             Am               C

    Like a bitch, I would know

         G         D

    And you over-think

             Am          C

    Always speak critically

              G         D                 Am    C

    I should know that you're no good for me

     

    Chorus:

                  G

    Cause you're hot then you're cold

            D

    You're yes then you're no

            Am

    You're in then you're out

            C

    You're up then you're down

            G

    You're wrong when it's right

            D

    It's black and it's white

         Am

    We fight, we break up

        C

    We kiss, we make up

     

     G                              D

    (you) You don't really want to stay, no

     Am                                     C

    (but you) But you don't really want to go-o

            G

    You're hot then you're cold

            D

    You're yes then you're no

            Am

    You're in then you're out

            C

    You're up then you're down

     

    / G - - - / D - - - / Am - - - / C - - - /

     
    G          D
    We used to be
               Am            C 
    Just like twins, so in-sync
          G      D 
    The same energy
            Am         C
    Now's a dead battery
              G             D
    Used to laugh about nothing
                Am     C
    Now you're plain boring
               G        D                 Am     C
    I should know that you're not gonna change
     

    Chorus

     

    Bridge:

     

    / Em - - - / C - - - / G - - - / D - - - / x2

     

    Em       C

     Someone call the doctor

    G                 D

     Got a case of a love bipolar

    Em        C

     Stuck on a roller coaster

    G                    D

    Can't get off this ride

     

    G (hold)              D (hold)

    You change your mind

            Am (hold)           C (hold 2)

    Like a girl changes clothes
