Verse 1: Don't strum, just continue playing the Intro. 
 Em            C  
  Thorn in my side 
 G               D  
  You're always there 
 Em          C   
  Just to remind me 
 G              D  
  That I still care 
 
Verse 2: start strumming; if you're playing the song with 2 guitars,  
one of them continues playing the Intro. 
 Em            C  
  Thorn in my side 
           G       D  
  You won't let me go 
 Em              C  
  Right there beside me 
 G           D  
  To let me know 
 
Bridge 1: Hit C and G chords twice; strum D chords. 
           C  
  I've been pushed around 
 G  
  Been knocked down 
 D  
  Lost a round or three 
      C  
  Life took a couple of  
  G  
  Things I loved when I was 
 D  
  Too blind to see 
 
Chorus 1: One guitar strums the chords,  
to see what the other one does,  
have a look at the tab version;  
() means hit the chord and then mute right away. 
 
    C  G    D  
But I'll survive 
       C  
I gave up on luck 
    G                 D  
But I'm still getting by 
      C  G           D  
Yeah, I'm gonna be alright

You can test my faith

Verse 3: Like verse 2, or play only the Intro with light distortion. 
 Em            C  
  Thorn in my side 
 G                D  
  You just won't quit 
 Em                       C  
  Once in a while when I crack a smile 
 G            D  
  You rub my face in it 
 
Verse 4: Only strum the chords, stop playing the Intro. 
 Em            C  
  Thorn in my side

  You won't let me run

  That I've lost and won
