A.F.I. - The Leaving Song
To make it easier I distinguished the big D and the small d (which is faint).
You can choose not to play it(or play the big D instead), and for the bridge,
I feel it sounds better by modifying G at one point,
so you can play them fully (without palm mute) and it will still sound good!

D G D
Walked away, heard them say
Am C G D Em
"Poison hearts will never change, walk away again"
D G D
Turned away in disgrace
Am C G D Em
Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within
C D B7 Em
It's hard to notice gleaming from the sky
C Am D
When you're staring at the cracks
Em G D Am C G D Em
It's hard to notice what is passing by with eyes lowered
D G D
You walked away, heard them say
Am C G D Em
"Poison hearts will never change, walk away again"
Em D G G* D
All the cracks, they lead right to me
Em D G G* D
And all the cracks will crawl right through me
Em D G G* D
All the cracks, they lead right to me
Em D G G* D Am D
And all the cracks will crawl right through me, and I fell apart
Em D G D
As I, walked away, heard them say
Am C G D Em
"Poison hearts will never change, walk away again"
D G D
Turned away in disgrace
Am C G D Em
Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within
Em D G D Am C G D Em
