Wear my badge, vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest. Tells
your new friends: I am a visitor here, I am not permanent. And the only thing
keeping me dry is (where I am)

You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex. A stranger with your
door key explaining that I'm just visiting. I am finally seeing, well I was the
one worth leaving.

It's hard to match the energy of the final chorus with just your acoustic
guitar, but strumming it strongly while picking up the tempo some will help.
-5---8---3--|
-5---8---3--|
-7---9---4--|
10--12---3--|
-8--10---5--|
-5---8---3--|

This ending is different than the ending in the song but it sounds the same 


-5----8----7---7---7-|
-5----8----8---8---8-|
-7----9----7---7---7-|
-10---12---9---9---9-|
-8----10---10--10--7-|
-5----8------------0-| repeat
