I'm quite sure the timing will end up wrong in the bridge, but it's hard to work it out.
With the chords, you shoul dbe able to figure it out for yourself! I'm quite sure this
end up looking a mess when it's submitted, but you'll get the gist.
UPDATE: Chord diagrams added, finally, hope that helps, sorry they weren't there before!
[G] [Aadd9] [Bm] [Asus2/F#]
[G/D] [Dadd11] [Em7/B] [B5]
[Bm7/G] [B/D] [D5/B] [F5] [G5]
(Tuning: Standard - E,A,D,G,B,E)
Id ar[G]rest you if [Aadd9]I had [Bm]handcuffs
Id ar[G]rest you if [Aadd9]I had the [Bm]time
Id [G]throw you [Aadd9]down in the [Bm]backseat
As if you'd [Asus2/F#]committed a terrible [G]crime
G Aadd9 Bm (x4)
I'd [G]break in a [Aadd9]town's worth of [Bm]houses
And [G]rob whole [Aadd9]families [Bm]blind
Id [G]do it to [Aadd9]you like you'd [Bm]do it to me
If you [Asus2/F#]knew you would get away [G]fine
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/brand_new/handcuffs_crd.html )
Id [G]drown all these [Aadd9]crying [Bm]babies
If I [G]knew that their [Aadd9]mothers wouldnt [Bm]cry
Id [G]hold them [Aadd9]down and Id [Bm]squeeze real soft
And [Asus2/F#]let a piece of [G]myself [Aadd9]die
[G/D]Its hard to be the [Dadd11]better man
When [Em7/B]you forget youre trying
Its [G]hard to [Asus2/F#]be the [G]better [Aadd9]man[G]
Id [G]arrest you if [Aadd9]I had [Bm]handcuffs
Id [G]arrest you if [Aadd9]I had the [Bm]time
Id [G]wait for you [Aadd9]outside the [Bm]courtroom
And [Asus2/F#]taunt you when all your appeals were [G]declined
Id [G]drive my [Aadd9]car off of a [Bm]bridge
If I [G]knew that you [Aadd9]werent in[Bm]side
With the [G]pedal to the [Aadd9]floor, who could [Bm]ask for a more
Fantastic [Asus2/F#]way to kill some [G]time[Aadd9]
[B5]You could lay on your back and be [Bm7/G]beaten
You could put up your fists and [D5/B]fight
You could try and be way off
[G/D]Its hard to be the [Dadd11]better man
When you f[Em7/B]orget youre trying
Its [G]hard to [D/F#]be the [Em]better [D/F#]man
When youre still lying
[G/D]Its hard to be the [Dadd11]better man
When you [Em7/B]forget youre trying
Its [G]hard [Dadd11/F#] to [Em]be the [Dadd11/F#]better man
When [G]youre [Dadd11/F#]still [Em]lying[Dadd11/F#]
[G]Youre [Dadd11/F#]still [Em]lying[Dadd11/F#]
