Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Guitar comes in with:  (3x)
 bass only):
 Open  up your box of sunshine
 and smile  as confetti comes raining  down on you
 You feel  a lot like the good guy,  but do you know why
 Everything's so blue
 guitar comes in):
Well,  love is fire and the coals  are barely burning
Cold  fills the emptiness that fills  this empty place
I  taught you the walk but then you ran  away from me
 and that's not how it's supposed to be
I,  I collide with  love  as an elusive state of mind
 I know  there's something else it's supposed to  be
I,  I collide with  love  as an elusive state of mind
 something's  killing me
Tearful  confessions have watered  down and broken down
 the chance  for unrequited love to finally  reach its wall
you're  waiting for the ax to fall
 Can't you  see it lying on the ground?
You  could be the best  one at cleaning  up this mess
Be  the best one, be the best one, be the best one.
 Chorus after bridge:
I,  I collide with  love  as an elusive state of mind
 I know  there's something else it's supposed to  be
I,  I collide with  love  as an elusive state of mind
 something's  killing me
I,  I collide with  love  as an elusive state of mind
 I know  there's something else it's supposed to  be
I,  I collide with  love  as an elusive state of mind
 something's  something's killing, something's killing  me
/C  (2x)  (over and over then end on )
