Chord diagram for Em
Chord diagram for Dsus2
Chord diagram for G
Chord diagram for Gb
      This song pretty much revolves around a simple two chord structure, the first being a 
Em-Dsus2-Em and the chorus is G to F#.
Definitely listen to the song because they really lay on the texture.
This version is based on the 8-03-2007 Red Rocks show, found here:

             Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2    Em Dsus2 Em
Tell me what sin         replaces love

 Dsus2  Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em
I wanna know,       right now

             Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2    Em Dsus2 Em
Tell me what sin         replaces love

 Dsus2  Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em
I wanna know,       right now

(continued with higher energy, optional walk up is E-F#-G-F#-E)

Imagine yourself on a mountain
Mountain discovered with flowers
Flowers discolored with horses
Horses distracted by stones
Stone distrusted with me
Then you might know what I mean

       G                                F#
'Cause I want to kick love right in its gut
G                      F#
Beat it and leave for dead
G                      F#
Wash my hands in the river
G            F#          Em
Lie down and die in your bed

(repeat 1st verse)
    G                 F#
The voice on the receiver
  G                     F#
Baby cry howlin' in the wind
 G                         F#
I don't wanna beg for your mercy
G                  F#         Em
I wanna know right know, what sin

Tell me what sin replaces love
I wanna know, right now
