Reinventing Your Exit Underoath
Reinventing Your Exit (Acoustic)
Underoath
Underoath never released this song as an acoustic version, but Aaron has
played it acoustic live before, so this is based off of that version (found
here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnaX0CRVkyg). I've made a few minor
changes I've made that I think make it sound better. (Namely, changing the
intro from just strumming Am9 for 4 bars into a fingerpicked progression that
lasts 8 bars and sounds very nice.)
The song can be played in Drop D or standard, but Aaron plays it in Drop D,
and that's by far the easier way to play of the two. That being said, I'm
writing out the chords in Drop D. So if you want to play it in standard, you
can figure out how to do an F6sus2 yourself, because my hands can't contort
like that.
[Am9] [Cmaj7] [F6sus2] [G6sus4] [Em] [C/D] [Csus4/D]
e|-(0)-----(0)-------------------------------3--------3----| B|--0-------0------(3)------(5)-----(0)------5--------6----| G|--5-------5-------5--------5-------4-------5--------5----| D|--5-------5-------5--------5-------5-------0--------0----| A|--0-------3-------3--------5-------2---------------------| D|------------------3--------5-------2---------------------|
In the verses, when you see (Cmaj7), you can either play that chord or
continue playing Am9. Either way sounds fine. Chords followed by an
asterisk* are fingerpicked.

12th and [Am9]Hide on a [(Cmaj7)]Sunday
[F6sus2]Feeling like we're [G6sus4]gold
And we're [Am9]nothing [(Cmaj7)]short of inv[F6sus2]incible[G6sus4]
[Am9]Invinc[Cmaj7]ible[F6sus2] [G6sus4]
[Am9]Invinc[Cmaj7]ible[F6sus2] [G6sus4]
It starts [Am9]again
Can you [(Cmaj7)]feel it?
It [F6sus2]takes your breath [G6sus4]away
Stop [Am9]saying that[(Cmaj7)] we're invi[F6sus2]ncible
[G6sus4]It's round and round
You'r[Am9]e unin[F6sus2]viting, u[G6sus4]nrewarding[Em]
[Am9]And I'm [F6sus2]misinforming you
[G6sus4]Misinform[Em]ing you
[F6sus2]We all want to [Am9]be
We want to [G6sus4]be somebody
[Fsus2]Right now we're just [Am9]looking for the [G6sus4]exit
[C/D] [Csus4/D] [C/D] [Csus4/D]
[Am9]This i[Cmaj7]s the way [F6sus2]I would have [G6sus4]done things
When we're[Am9] up against the wall, up [Cmaj7]against the wall
You've got me [F6sus2]up against your[G6sus4] wall
[Am9]This i[Cmaj7]s the way [F6sus2]I would have [G6sus4]done things
When we're[Am9] up against the wall, up [Cmaj7]against the wall
You've got me [F6sus2]up against your[G6sus4] wall
It's you and [Am9]me on a [(Cmaj7)]Monday
The [F6sus2]lies that we [G6sus4]told
This is [Am9]where we[(Cmaj7)] both go num[F6sus2]b now[G6sus4]
[Am9]You broke my [F6sus2]heart again this [G6sus4]time
You're fading [Em]now, you crossed the line[Am9] [F6sus2]
You crossed the [G6sus4]line[Em]
[F6sus2]We all want to [Am9]be,
We want to [G6sus4]be somebody
[Fsus2]Right now we're just [Am9]looking for the [G6sus4]exit
[Am9]This i[Cmaj7]s the way [F6sus2]I would have [G6sus4]done things
When we're[Am9] up against the wall, up [Cmaj7]against the wall
You've got me [F6sus2]up against your[G6sus4] wall
[Am9]This i[Cmaj7]s the way [F6sus2]I would have [G6sus4]done things
When we're[Am9] up against the wall, up [Cmaj7]against the wall
You've got me [F6sus2]up against your[G6sus4] wall
[Am9]Reaching [Am9]out for a [F6sus2]hand that's [G6sus4]not there
[Am9]But you're n[Am9]ot there and[F6sus2] I'm not[G6sus4]...
