it is.

I'll only plot the first verse, the one interlude, and the chorus. The rest of the song
the same progressions.
Verse:
Am C/G
He said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down
Em Riff1 (Am)
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
Am C/G
He said I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Em Riff1 (Am)
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls
repeat until
Interlude:
Fmaj G6 Fmaj G6
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah...
Chorus:
Fmaj D/F#
Honey, all the movements you're starting to make
Fmaj
See me crumble and fall on my face
D/F#
And I know the mistakes that I made
Bb Fmaj
See it all disappear without a trace
D/F#
And they call as they beckon you on
Bb Am C/G Em Riff1
They said start as you mean to go on
Am C/G Em Riff1 Am C/G Em
Start as you mean to go on
