Trophy Room Acoustic Chords

   
I just heard this song for the first time today. A friend of mine wanted me to try 
to figure out the chords by ear. It may not be 100% correct, but it's damn close.

Chords are:
B
E
G#
F#
C#

E is played in two positions, and will be listed as "E" and "E2" (because I'm a 
little music dumb):
E:
e|---x---|
B|---x---|
G|---x---|
D|---2---|
A|---2---|
E|---0---|

E2:
e|---7---|
B|---7---|
G|---9---|
D|---9---|
A|---7---|
E|---0---|

Standard tuning. Listen to the song for strumming patterns, as they change very frequently. Enjoy.


Intro:
B    E    G#    F#  (x3)
B    E    G#    F#    E

             B                  C#
Well she starts with her eyes
                E2
When she sets her trap
            B             C#             E
As she carefully surveys the room
   B                  C#                 E2
Looking for the most pathetic of boys
           B              C#
To destroy with her hips
               E
And her innocent face
            F#            E
And you try to get a read on her
                        F#
But she hides everything
                   E2
So you won't see what she could do

[CHORUS]
B                 E
I dodged a bullet again
G#              F#
That was a close one
B                 E
Almost fell for her trap
G#           F#
But I will live to tell about it
B                 E
I may have escaped today
G#                F#
But she'll never give up
B                  E
'Til she's got my insides
G#     F#                     E
Hanging in her trophy room


B                    C#
She uses her legs
              E2
You use your imagination
B                   C#             E
Wondering what could be underneath
B                C#
Her perfect smile
           E2
And the way she pretends
B                 C#
That she doesn't know
          E2
What she is up to
           F#              E
And you try to get a hold of her
                 F#
But she's not answering
                E2
And you're afraid of what she might do

[CHORUS]

F#           G#             E
And at the end of the day
F#                 G#          E
She knows that I'll still be there
F#          G#             E
No matter how bad it hurts
F#          G#                    E
I just can't shake my feelings

E
She'll do anything
F#                        G#
To make sure that she isn't the one
 E
Who lets her guard down
F#                         G#
And gets her heart broken

B    E    G#    F#
B    E    G#    F#    E

[CHORUS]

Outro:
F#      B
