Note: Chords at this verse may sound funny because Chris' vocals change
      at some point. Don't know what I mean? Check out the 3rd line.
      But it should be okay because it is a running chords for verse.
      For electric guitar, Jonny just do the same thing but he add some
      spies in it.

Verse 3:

Amin
She'll be my mirror,

Emaj
Reflect what I am,

Bsus
A loser and a winner,

Amin
The King of Siam,

Emaj
And my Siamese twin,

Bsus
She knows what I'm thinking,
