Hold Me Down by Halsey - Guitar Chords

Version 1
            hii (: this is my second tab yay! i learned this by ear from the live version, so if any of the lyrics
or chords aren't correct i apologize! i started on piano then transferred to guitar and it sounds pretty
okay so far. to play without a capo, which is harder but sounds more correct, transpose up by 4 so you get
C#m, B, and A. the strumming pattern is a little confusing. If you have 1+2+3+4+ you strum the first chord 
on 1, hold, strum the transition chord on 4 and the next chord on the last +. you'll pick it up eventually,
it's not too hard. listen to the song to help with it. enjoy! (:

STANDARD TUNING.
CAPO ON FOURTH. 


[Verse]

   Am                       G    F          G
My demons are begging me to open up my mouth
  Am                     G        F             G
I need them mechanically make the words come out
     Am                     G      F                G
They fight me, vigorous and angry, watch them pounce
     Am                      G           F          G
They light me licking up the flames they bring about


[Pre-Chorus]

Am                    G
  I sold my soul to a three-piece
F        G             Am
  And he told me I was holy
                      G       
  He's got me down on my knees
F              G
  But it's the devil that's tryna

  
[Chorus]  
  
Am                    G
Hold me down, hold me down
F       
Sneaking out the back door,
G
Make no sound
Am                     G
Knock me out, knock me out
F                        G
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for

Am                    G
Hold me down, hold me down
F                         G
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Am                     G
Knock me out, knock me out
F                        G
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for


[Verse]

    Am                     G        F           G
I'm selfish, taking what I want and call it mine
    Am                      G      F           G
I'm helpless, clinging to a little bit of spine
     Am                      G       F          G
They rush me, telling me I'm running out of time
     Am                    G       F           G 
They shush me, walking me across a fragile line


[Pre-Chorus]

Am                    G
  I sold my soul to a three-piece
F        G             Am
  And he told me I was holy
                      G       
  He's got me down on my knees
F              G
  But it's the devil that's tryna

  
[Chorus]
  
Am                    G
Hold me down, hold me down
F       
Sneaking out the back door,
G
Make no sound
Am                     G
Knock me out, knock me out
F                        G
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for

Am                    G
Hold me down, hold me down
F                         G
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Am                     G
Knock me out, knock me out
F                        G
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for


[Bridge]

Am G          F     G    
    Hold me down now
              Am     G
    Hold me down now
              F      G
    Hold me down now

        
[Pre-Chorus]    

Am                    G
  I sold my soul to a three-piece
F        G             Am
  And he told me I was holy
                      G       
  He's got me down on my knees
F              G
  But it's the devil that's tryna

  
[Chorus]  
  
Am                    G
Hold me down, hold me down
F       
Sneaking out the back door,
G
Make no sound
Am                     G
Knock me out, knock me out
F                        G
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for

Am                    G
Hold me down, hold me down
F                         G
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Am                     G
Knock me out, knock me out
F                        G
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
