Mraz uses four basic jazz chords for most of the song:
FA#m7 2x42x0MI/FA# x9799xD7 x5x45x during verse or x5453x during breakdown
DO#7 x4342x
I didn't take time to mark out where they all land during the verse, but they're played
that order throughout.
There is also:
FA#maj 244322MImaj x7999x

Verse 1:
say easily with me well i show affection
but it's creeping up creeping up on me in another direction
i love a ride and i know someday I’m gonna buy it so i try to ask no questions
but the weary one is often me well do you think it's obsession
Breakdown:
RE7 DO7 RE7the smoke will find you a choker that matches your coat
not fit to be tied
RE7 DO7the mirror it makes it all clearer
RE7 DO7as you stand alone and can see your behind
(scat)
Verse 2:
well they tried it and they like to say nobody would believe this
yes you tried it and you liked it but nobody could ever conceive of it
the way you stayed up locked away up keeping the flame for yourself
the way you played it out pushing the blame of reaping the fame for yourself
Bridge:
oh, it's a it's a dead end it’s ts ts ts ts ts dead end day
RE7 DO7it's a dead, a lonely day
FA#m7 MI/FA#said it’s it's a dead end and it’s ts ts ts ts ts dead end thing
it's a dead end, a lonely day
RE7 DO7 FA#majand it's a long way a long way down sing it again
RE7 DO7and it's a long, long way
it’s a long way down
MImajLong it’s a long way-ee-ay
Verse 3 (Here just palm mute the base notes of the verse chords):
change is coming baby don't be startled lady
every once in awhile they do it again
you're gonna shake it, shake it you know you wanna take it
back to where you once belonged
back beneath the sheets and between the pillow cases
and the snake he races out and then he tangles into your hair
oh, funny the fruits you choose oh the time it takes the words you lose
and it all goes back to rotation over the back of your hand
said the back of your hand said the back of your hand
well the map is your hand it's the back of your hand
s-s-said the back of your hand you know the map is your hand
oh you better take pictures and remember what you can
RE7 DO7
cause it's a long, long way
and it's a long, long way-ee
RE7 DO7and it's a long, long,
RE7 DO7 FA#majmm it’s a long, lo-ong way down
cause it's a long way, long way down
MImaj FA#m7oooh it’s a long ooo-oo-ooh
