Richard Coury Chords

   
I refer to this version as the one in the album so technically you would have two 
guitarists, an acoustic and an electric. However, music is also about improvising 
so it doesn't really matter :) The strum pattern is somewhat (down down up down 
up) for each individual phrasing, but it is up to each individual.

Acoustic***

[Verse 1]

D(pre-strum)
      C           G                      D
The amber flow, sweat like the glass
     C        G                       D
Crimson faces forget the past
      C                          G            D
With a swisher sweet and a fireman's hack
          C                  G
We can reminisce but we can never look back

[Chorus]
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_menzingers/richard_coury_crd.html ]
Cmaj7        G              Cmaj7               G
Unhappiness, a lonely road, who thought success could take such a toll?
Cmaj7        G                 D
Unhappiness, a lonely road
D       G        
Richard Coury put a bullet in his brain
G                Cmaj7      G             Cmaj7
Every day is the same, loneliness all the haze
G                     Cmaj7                    G                 Cmaj7
So we live our lives and we have our fun while he wraps his lips around the gun
        G                     G(once and mute)
Richard Coury was his name

Electric***

[Verse 2]

D(pre-strum)

D     C        G                          D
Its 5 o'clock time to check the quotes
     C   G                                D
Down 22, rethink my do's and don'ts
     C          G                         D
Secretary won't you hold my calls
          C             G
Cancel my appointments, I've got something to solve

[Chorus] x1

[Spoken] 
Richard Coury put a bullet in his brain
Every day is the same, loneliness all the haze
So we live our lives and we have our fun while he wraps his lips around the gun
Richard Coury was his name
