Intro D-Riff:
Fiddle through G5 and a Dsus4th back and forth.
G5 Gsus4
e|-----0-------------x--------------|
B|-----3-------------X--------------|
G|-----2-------------0--------------|
D|-----0-------------0--------------|
A|-----x-------------x--------------|
E|-----x-------------x--------------|
Gue to the way UG displays chords, the intro riff will be simply called D here.
The power chord version of this also song uses G5 and Gsus4 for the intro riff
(and you should totally use this after the bridge!) but the fingering is on the a string:
G5 Gsus4
e|-----x-------------x--------------|
B|-----x-------------X--------------|
G|-----7-------------7--------------|
D|-----7-------------5--------------|
A|-----5-------------5--------------|
E|-----x-------------x--------------|
So here goes. Nice and easy:

I caught myself believing

every word that was said

and that's fine.

'Cause I've made some quick decisions
G D C
that just barely left me with an opinion

or identity of my own.

Would you feel like a stranger

I may try and if I fall I'll pick myself up again.
