H* 5th fret a,d,g strings all together. Verse: Em Bm G It hurts to breathe, Well every time D C that you're not next to me Em Bm G Her mind's made up, The girl is gone D C And now I'm forced to see Em Bm G I think I'm on my way D C Oh, it hurts to live today Em Bm G Oh and she says "Don't you wish D C you were dead like me?"

That harmonic part after the first chorus I couldn't really figure out by ear but it works for me I'm sure it's not totally correct but the rest of the song should be fairly close. Enjoy.
