Not sure of either of these D chords, whether they should be a little "special" or both   
just a regular D chord

***You might also want to mute the high e throughout the song, personal preference tho  

    G                             Bm  
The air begins to feel a little thin  
     D*                           A  
As I start the car and then I begin  
   G                         Bm  
To add the miles piled up behind me  
  D*                           A  
I barely feel a smile deep inside me  

      G                                Bm  
And I begin to envy the headlights driving south  
          D*                             A  
I want to crack the door so I can just fall out  
     G                              Bm 
But then I remember when you packed my car  
    D*                                  A  
You reached in the back and bucked up your heart  

    G     Bm   D*   A  
For me to drive away with  
  G        Bm     D*  
I began to understand  
   A         G  
Why God died  

G Bm  D* A  
2x  

    G                            Bm  
The demons sat there waiting on her porch  
         D*                             A  
It was a little dark so we held a makeshift torch  
    G                          Bm  
And when my car was far out of sight  
   D*                                         A  
He crept in her room and stayed there for the night  

           G  
And then I felt chills in my bones  
             Bm  
The breath I saw was not my own  
          D*  
I knew my skin that wrapped my frame  
        A  
Wasn't made to play this game  
            G  
And then I saw Him, torch in hand  
            Bm  
He laid it out, what he had planned  
           D*  
And then I said, I'll take the grave  
              A  
Please, just send them all my way  
2x  

G Bm  D* A  

  G        Bm   D*  
I began to understand  
  A  
Why God died  

G Bm D* A  
2x  

    G                            Bm 
The air begins to feel a little thin  
         D*                          A  
As we're waiting for the morning to begin  
G                                Bm 
But for now you told me to hold this jar  
           D*  
And when I looked inside, I saw  
         A  
It held your heart  

    G     Bm.      D* A  
For me to walk away with  
  G         Bm   D*  
I began to understand  
  A  
Why God died  

G D
