      During the Chorus, you can optionally walk down from the B7 to the Em.

E|----0--0--x--x--0--|
B|----0--0--0--0--0--|
G|----2--2--0--0--0--|
D|----1--1--1--1--2--|
A|----2--0--0--0--2--|
E|----0--0--3--2--0--|

This will be denoted by an asterisk (*). You can also get the same effect by simply muting all other strings
and playing:
e|-----------------|
B|-----------------|
G|-----------------|
D|-----------------|
A|--2--0--0--0--2--|
E|--0--0--3--2--0--|

This is optional but I think it adds something, especially if you do not have a bassist with you to play that
walk on the bass.

[Intro]
Em  B7

[Verse]
          Em
Count the lights on empty souls
    Am
Quietly behind the door
     C          B7       Em   B7
Of bleeding us just for fun
       Em
Men of power telling lies
        Am
Shifty hands and thirsty eyes
              C          B7        Em      B7
And they can smell your fear like blood

[Chorus]
    Em     Am    B7
And Oh my weary soul
       B7            Em
We've met your kind before
     Am        B7*
Set fire to us all
    Em       Am     B7
And Oh sweet providence
      B7            Em
Come save us from ourselves
      Am         B7*
From hell with consequence

[Verse]
Em B7

         Em
Feed the rich and kill the poor
               Am
Turn out the lights and just ignore
         C   B7      Em   B7
What's going on out side
         Em
Beating hearts of the depraved
                  Am
We've turned them people into slaves
           C       B7                Em     B7
And we've given up before we've even tried

[Chorus]
    Em     Am    B7
And Oh my weary soul
       B7            Em
We've met your kind before
     Am        B7*
Set fire to us all
    Em       Am     B7
And Oh sweet providence
      B7            Em
Come save us from ourselves
      Am         B7*
From hell with consequence

[Bridge]
C   Am   C   B7
C   Am   C   B7
Em  Am   C   B7  Em  B7
Em  Am   C   B7  Em  B7

[Chorus]
    Em     Am    B7
And Oh my weary soul
       B7            Em
We've met your kind before
     Am        B7*
Set fire to us all
    Em       Am     B7
And Oh sweet providence
      B7            Em
Come save us from ourselves
      Am         B7*
From hell with consequence

[refrain]
    Em    Am     B7
And Oh my weary soul
    Em    Am     B7
And Oh my weary soul
    Em       Am    B7
And Oh sweet providence
      B7           Em
Come save us from ourselves
      Am       B7
From hell in consequence

[Outro] (Rhythm change) x5
Em Am B7
