Guitar chord In The End

In the End was written by Linkin Park as a reflection on the effort and dedication that sometimes do not lead to expected outcomes. The track captures frustration and resignation, but also a certain perseverance despite adversity. It was among the first songs the band wrote together and quickly became an emblem of the early 2000s nu metal generation.

  x4 Intro Riff:
               
Am
 
It starts with one thing I don't know why
   
G
 
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
F
 
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
   
G
 
To explain in due time
         
Am
 
All I know, time is a valuable thing
G
 
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
F
 
Watch it count down to the end of the day
         
G
 
The clock ticks life away
          
Am
 
It's so unreal, didn't look out below
G
 
Watch the time go right out the window
F
 
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
   
G
 
Or wasted it all just to
          
Am
 
Watch you go, I kept everything inside
    
G
 
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
F
 
What it meant to me will eventually be
   
G
 
A memory of a time when

           
Am
              
C
 
I tried so hard and got so far
           
G
                   
F
 
But in the end it doesn't even matter
         
Am
              
C
 
I had to fall to lose it all
           
G
                   
F
 
But in the end it doesn't even matter

Am
 
One thing, I don't know why
   
G
 
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
F
 
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
   
G
 
To remind myself how
           
Am
                                         
G
 
I tried so hard, in spite of the way you were mocking me
                                     
F
 
Acting like I was part of your property
                                          
G
 
Remembering all the times you fought with me
                        
Am
 
I'm surprised it got so far
                                     
G
 
Things aren't the way they were before
                                     
F
 
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
                                   
G
 
Not that you knew me back then but it all comes back to me
       
Am
 
In the end you kept everything inside
         
G
 
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
F
 
What it meant to me will eventually be
       
G
 
A memory of a time when

           
Am
              
C
 
I tried so hard and got so far
           
G
                   
F
 
But in the end it doesn't even matter
         
Am
              
C
 
I had to fall to lose it all
           
G
                   
F
 
But in the end it doesn't even matter

            
Am
       
G
 
I've put my trust in you
          
F
           
G
 
Pushed as far as I can go
             
Am
 
And for all this
             
G
                    
F
   
G
 
There's only one thing you should know
            
Am
       
C
 
I've put my trust in you

Pushed as far as I can go
