This is a great song from the fantastic new Bad Books record, and one of Andy 
Hull's finest vocally in my opinion. The picking pattern is kind of random, as is 
characteristic of many songs written by Andy Hull.

CAPO 1

C
When you're with another man inside another home
                    F                          C
Do you adapt to the walls? Do you adapt to the walls?
C
Found the newspaper, thumbing my hands through doing another dance, 
                              F                            C
Doing what I could, well it don't, you gotta leave me alone
      G             F              C
And I wonder if you still lived at home
        G             F              C
Yeah, I wonder if you still lived at home

C
What do you think you'd have done without a colder beer
                F                         C
A fresh pack of zigs and zags, lighting another fag
    G                  F                  C
And I was hungover and you would come hang over
G                  F                  C
I was hungover and you would come hang over
    G       F         C
And start a biblical fire

C                                     F              C
You and your dad, what a tragic mishap, ha-ah-ah-ah-ap
       G           F               C
When a man loves a drink more than blood
      G                   F                 Am        G  F
And I pace my room for an hour or two every day since 2001
F                          C
And I think I talk too much


At the end, it sounds like he goes between C and F a few times before ending on C.
