The song plays the verse with a varied E7 chord as the iii in the progression which I've notated below, however you can play an em and it will sound fine. The am in the verse is played as a barre chord, but in the chorus it's open. In the prechorus the C and F are also barre chords, which I've notated below, but elsewhere they are played in the standard open and 1st fret barre chord respectively E7 Am C F |--4--| |--5--| |--3--| |--5--| |--3--| |--5--| |--5--| |--6--| |--1--| |--5--| |--5--| |--5--| |--0--| |--7--| |--5--| |--3--| |--2--| |--7--| |--3--| |--3--| |--0--| |--5--| |--3--| |-----| [Intro] C, Em (x2) [Verse] C If pain was a color to paint on you E7 Your heart would be the color blue. Am Be a gradient from there till your body met your hair D Which would remain a silver hue C You are the one they call Jesus Christ. E7 Who didn't know no rock and roll. Am Just a mission and a gun to paint rainbows in Vietnam D And a heart that always told you F C There's a madness in us all. F C There's a madness in us all. [Chorus] C So who broke the rules? Em Who broke the rules? Am Who broke the rules? F C They said every one of you will never try to lend a hand Em Am When the policemen don't understand. C F Boys, all you boys Am G Think you're so American. C F Girls, all you girls Am G Yeah you're so American. [Verse] C He may not be born of this land E7 But he was born of this world. Am He was born of all the mothers and the colors of our brothers D And the love that was taught to C you by the one they call Jesus Christ. E7 He may not know no rock and roll.
