It like to play the song using barre chords: Bm(VII), A(V), G(III) D(V)
and Bm(II) in the "things you learnt" bit
you could use power (5th) chords. They often use "normal" open position chords live

Bm | G |D |A
Bm (N.C) fade out w/vol or whatever
All around you slow decay
Wanna feel the sun of a new day
Forget all tme chances lost
Shedding innocence like falling dust
Bm G
All the things you learned too young
Bm G
The songs you knew but never sung
Bm G
Waited a long time and wasted more
D A
Forgotten what you waited for
Bm A G
Excuse me ma'am for being so rude
D A
Feels like 100 years of solitude
Bm A G
My mind is numb but my mouth's ok
D A
And you can listen or walk away
Bm | G |D |A x2
Bm (N.C)
No solutions built to last
Just your petty scores to settle fast
G
The n.m.e was nothing to you
D A

And the maker, well the maker of who
Bm G
This walkman generation
Bm G
In search of sweet sedation
Bm G
While forests choke under a'lever sky
D A
And the exxon birds that'll never fly

We tried, we cried. We fell. We lied
X\
This life's like a white knuckle ride
(N.C) G
Crack babies born too young
D A
And l.a. kids who dance to the gun
Bm G
So forget this so called dirt of mine
Bm G
It's tust the dust and diesel of passing time
Bm G
It's all around you - a tragedy, look
D A
So forget the cover and read the book.
[CHORUS]
Bm | G |D |A x2

E5 Palm Muted then as Bridge to End
