I kinda have 2 versions that have been cobbled together from other peoples tabs
and videos so I really cannot take credit at all for any of these whatsoever,
they're just everything I've seen put into some versions.
The first one is pretty fool proof :) Fiddle around with a capo if you want to, it works well on 3

Basically play an Am and a C but just plucking those strings and then at the
chorus play Am, C and G:
With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didn't give up hope
It's just the simple ways, of getting paid
The carelessnes of running away
Mute the G here
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed etc..
For the "I don't own my clothes but I own my mind etc.." bit, play the tabby bit
above but all the strings shown together like:
C [XXX01X]
Am[XXX21X]
And only pluck them once:)
I don't own my clothes but i own my mind
And it's not what you've lost
But it's what you find. etc...
The second version, I think, is a bit better sounding :)
|------4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4--4--0--|
|------2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--2--2--|

|------0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0--0--0--|

At the chorus play E and a retarded Am [X06650] so it goes like this:
With that skipping rope, the trampoline
The crafty smoke that made us choke
But we didn't give up hope
It's just the simple ways, of getting paid
The carelessnes of running away
Mute the Am here
I wish I stayed
I wish I stayed etc..
Similarly to the first version play the strings that are pressed down in the chords:
E [X221XX]
Am [XX665X]
I don't own my clothes but i own my mind
And it's not what you've lost
But it's what you find. Etc.
I know this all may be a bit confusing, so I really do apologise!!
Hopefully it is helpful though:)
I have a few other sh!ttier versions so facebook message me for those if you want
them or indeed need help in understanding this :/
