Title: Nothingman

This is how Stone plays it live with a capo on the 5th fret
 
[Intro]
C Am  G Am  F    (x2)
 
[Verse]
C            Am G           Am     F
Once divided,    nothing left to subtract
C                     Am G       Am      F
Some words when spoken    can't be taken back
C               Am     G          Am         F
Walks on his own   with thoughts he can't help thinking
C              Am             G        Am         F       Am (barred, 10th fret)
Future's above,     but in the past he's slow and sinking
F                            G            F               Am F  G
Caught a bolt of lightning,    cursed the day he let it go
 
[Chorus]
C             F   G
Nothingman,      nothingman
C                    F    G
Isn't it something?  Nothingman
 
[2nd Verse:]
C                Am         G       Am     F
She once believed   in every story he had to tell
C                     Am  G       Am      F
One day she stiffened,     took the other side
C           Am           G          Am            F
Empty stares    from each corner of a shared prison cell
C                Am       G     Am       F        Am (barred, 10th fret)
One just escapes,    one's left inside the well
F                   G         F               Am   F             G
And he who forgets    will be destined to remember   oh  oh  oh  oh
 
[Chorus]
C               F  G
Nothingman,      nothingman
C                    F    G
Isn't it something?  Nothingman
 
[Bridge] (All played as bar chords)
Am             F       G
Oh, she don't want him (she don't want him)
                    F   Am             F      G  Am (barred, 10th fret)
Oh, she won't feed him,    after he's flown away
  F              G      F              G F
Oh, into the sun, yeah into the sun
F                    G
Burn, burn, burn  burn
 
[Chorus]
C              F  G
Nothingman,      nothingman
C                   F    G
Isn't it something?  Nothingman
C               F  G
Nothingman,      nothingman
C                     F    G
Coulda been something, nothingman
 
[Outro]
C       F     C (x3)
oooooooo uoooooo
