I know I tabbed it out before, but this is an easier way to play it.
For the whole song put more emphasis on the first note (DO-do DO-do etc.)

Verse

G|----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------3-3-3-3-3-5-3--|
E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5---------------5|

Chorus

G|----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1|
E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------|

Then back to verse
Then back to chorus

This is what you play during the "It's alright now..." part to the end of
the song

G|----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------------------------3-3-3-3-3-5-3--|
A|-----------------6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-------------------------------3|
E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----------------6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6----------------|

End of on E3 and your done. Very easy, and easier than my original tab,
which you can view below.

E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----------------------------------------------5|


Play this the 2nd time he sings the chorus (when he repeats the words)

G|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1|
A|-----------------1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------|
E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3---------------------------------------------------|
Play this during the "It's alright now..." to end of song

G|---------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-----------------3-3-3-3-3-5-3--|
A|--------------------------------1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1---------------5|
E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3----------------------------------------------

End off on an E3 and your done. Very simple to play.

This song could be about the trials of life that surround everyone. Problems with the world in general. "i'm tired of blood" could refer to war, "overpriced bubble gum" could refer to the capitalistic nature of the north american society. We tend to go through life with a "grin" on our face ignoring all the troubles of society that surrounds us. We also tend to "believe everything we read" or see in the news, when alot of the time it is propoganda brainwashing us into thinking a certain way. On top of that there are the personal problems that affect an individual, like the lonelyness matt speaks of in the song..... all this can eventually lead to a slight form of mental insanity and anguish. These troubles that surround us are the symbolistic white walls of the insane world/asylum we live in. The nice part about the song is that in the end we can come out of the temporary insanity, figure out whats going on, and "take the world and make it ours again".
