Alternate Version:

by ignoring the variations elliott plays on the high e-string you can play it like
that
in this case you wouldn't have to tune your high e-string to an c
and so you could use the classic chords
it sounds good as well and its less complicated

[D]youll [D/Ab]take a[A]d-[D/B]vantage [D]til you [E]think you’re being [G]used
[D]cos wit[D/Ab]hout a[A]n [D/B]enemy your [E]anger gets conf[G]used
[Bm]i got s[Bm7]tuck on the side you k[F#7]now i never c[G]hose

its [D]all [D/C#]about tak[Bm]ing the [D]easy way [E]out for you[G] i su[D]ppose
