I haven't uploaded any tabs before so this is my first one but it sounds just about spot on.
This song is from Dallas Green's new album and it's absolutely amazing. I'm not entirely
sure about chord names but they're written down there.

Intro: C Em Am C Em Am
Verse:
CI fear I'm Emdying of compliAmcations
CompliCcations due to Emthings that I've left Amundone
That all my Cdebts will be left Emunpaid
Feel like a Amcripple without a cane
I'm like a Cjack of all tradEmes
Who's a master of Amnone
Verse 2:
CThen there's my Emfather
AmHe's always looking on the bright side
Saying Cthings like &Emquot;son life just ain't Amthat hard"
He is the Cgrand optimisEmt
I am the Amworld's poor pessimist
You give him Cbuttons sometimesEm
And he will escape Amunscarred
Pre-Chorus/Chorus:
GI guess I take after my Ammother x2
I used to be quite resilient
Gain no strength from counting the beads on a rosary
Now the wound has begun to turn
Another lesson that has gone unlearned
But this is not a cry for pitty or for sympathy
I guess I take after my mother x2
