These are the chord shapes I believe are used, although I'm not too 
sure about the names of some of them...and they're just the basic 
shapes. Check the intro tab for most of the embelishments used. 
Check my tab for this song for an example of the picking used throughout. 
Where I mark a chord as ?1, ?2, or ?3.. these are close to the deliberate 
mistakes Brad makes in the song...lol 
I've added some tab at the end for the middle section, you'll know that 
cos the chords are different from all the verses.. :o) 
Have fun.....!!

INTRO (see seperate intro tab) 
 
 
C       Abdim        Am       Fm/B    Am        C9       F 
You overthink things you say, what if we're not meant to be? 
Ddim     Am  Abdim  Am 
You know what? So   what! 
Fmaj7               G/B 
Make a mistake with me. 
 
 
C       Abdim       Am        Fm/B     Am         C9     F 
Nobody goes through this life and does everything perfectly. 
Ddim             Am   Abdim            Am 
 We're all gonna fail, so you might as well, 
Fmaj7          G/B  C 
Make a mistake with me. 
 
 
 
E7             Am 
Sometimes baby, when we take 
E7                Am 
 A chance that has this much at stake. 
 
*SEE TAB*

 We look back and in hindsight, 
Am          Gm          Fm        Abdim 
What seemed wrong looks more like right. 
 
 
C        Abdim      Am        Fm/B      Am      C9       F 
So I say worst case, we'll be left with lots of good memories. 
Ddim           Am   Abdim           Am 
This chance we have, well its worth that. 
   Fmaj7          G/B  C 
So make a mistake with me. 
Ddim        Am   Abdim          Am 
I'm tellin' you, right thing to do, 
   F         C   G/B F         ?1   ?2  
Is make a mistake,   make a mistake, 
F              G/B  ?3 
Make a mistake with me. 
 
 
Spoken: Whoops, help me out....
