The other tab uploaded here is almost totally wrong. Sorry, pal.

Intro:

G, A7, F, C/G, G, Gsus4, G x 4

Verse 1 :

G             	     
Happiness is just a word to me,
        A#                           F
And it might have meant a thing or two
		  C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G
if I'd known the difference.

G                   
Emptiness, a lonely parody,
	A#                   F
And my life, another smokin’ gun
	     C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G
A sign of my indifference.


Eb
Always keepin’ safe inside
             F              
Where no one ever had a chance 
                 C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G        
To penetrate or break in.


Eb
Let me tell you some have tried,
       F                
but I slam the door so tight 
                     C/G, C/Gsus 4, C/G
That they could never get in.


Verse 2 - repeat chords


Chorus 1  (same as intro):

G
The longer I'd stall

The further I'd crawl
A7
The further I'd crawl

The harder I'd fall
F	      C/G         G
I was crawlin' into the fire


G
The more that I saw

The further I'd fall
A
The further I'd fall

The lower I'd crawl
F	     C/G          G
I kept fallin' into the fire



Guitar Solo - repeat chorus chords


Verse 3 (key change):
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_seatbelts/gotta_knock_a_little_harder_crd_ver_2.html ]
A              
Suddenly it occurred to me
    C                      G
The reason for the run and hide
               D, Dsus4, D
Had totaled my existence

A                    
Everything left on the other side
      C                         G
Could never be much worse that this
                   D, Dsus4, D
But could I go the distance

F
  I faced the door and all my shame
        D                    
Tearin' off each piece of chain
             A, Asus4, A
Until they were broken

F
But no matter how I tried
          D                  
The other side was locked so tight
                   A, Asus4, A
The door it wouldn't open



Chorus 2 :

A
Gave it all that I got

And started to knock
    B
Shouted for someone

To open the lock
       G    D                 A, Asus4, A
I just gotta get through the door

A
And the more that I knocked

The hotter I got
     B
The hotter I got

The harder I'd knock
       G    D                   A, Asus4, A
I just gotta break through the door

                      A
Gotta knock a little harder
                      B
Gotta knock a little harder
                      G     D
Gotta knock a little harder
                    A, Asus4, A 
Break through the door 

(repeat until end)
