This is my first post on here! I just kind of took the tab and changed it to the closest 
chords and I think it
sounds pretty nice! This is my favorite song by them and I really wanted to learn it, so 
I thought I'd share it
with everyone on here.

              
I would sleep 

             
better on your

              
 floor, than I

       
 would ever in

 my bed.
             
And if your ca

              
rpet makes my 

              
face itch, it'

           
d still be hea

ven in my head

.
             
I would play m

              
ore than just 

              
four chords, i

         
f it's a song 

that you might

 like.
             
But I am not v

              
ery good, so I

       
 would practic

e every night.

              
And she said, 

          
'Sometimes, th

             
ings just don'

       
t work out the

 way you want 

them to.
          
Sometimes, thi

             
ngs just don't

       
 work out. It'

s better me th

an it is you.
          
Sometimes, thi

             
ngs just don't

       
 work out the 

way you want t

hem to.
          
Sometimes, thi

             
ngs just don't

       
 work out. It'

s better me th

an it is you.'

            
'Break your ne

              
ck, and I will

             
 love you like

              
 a bird that c

             
annot fly. You

          
 will be fine.

'
              
And she says, 

            
'Break your ne

              
ck, and I will

             
 love you ever

             
y night. You w

      
ill be mine.'

              
I would stop d

             
oing all those

              
 things the do

      
ctor tells me 

not to do
             
But I don't th

              
ink he underst

              
ands, I do all

  
 of these thin

gs for you
              
And you've got

             
 gold plastic 

              
on your shelf 

              
that they gave

    
 to everybody 

else
              
And you could 

             
say it says yo

              
ur name but I 

          
don't think th

at that would 

help


              
And she said, 

          
'Sometimes, th

             
ings just don'

       
t work out the

 way you want 

them to.
          
Sometimes, thi

             
ngs just don't

       
 work out the 

way they shoul

d flow through

.
          
Sometimes, thi

             
ngs just don't

       
 work out the 

way you want t

hem to.
          
Sometimes, thi

             
ngs just don't

       
 work out. It'

s better me th

an it is you.'

            
'Break your ne

              
ck, and I will

             
 love you like

              
 a bird that c

'
              
And she says, 

            
'Break your ne

ill be mine.'

             
And today we c

            
ould do someth

         
ing that we'd 

never done bef

ore
             
And today we c

            
ould do someth

         
ing       more
             
And today we c

            
ould do someth

         
ing that we'd 

never done bef

ore
             
Done before

            

         

    (I don't think there are chords in this line)
And today we could do something that we'd never done before
             
And today we c

            
ould do someth

         
ing       more
             
And today we c
