Verse 1

Free, that’s all that she can bleed, that’s why’ll she’ll never stay.

You’ll plead, you’ll get down on your knees, for just another taste.
And when you think she’s let you in, that’s when she fades away.

Molly’s Chambers Chords: Learn the progressions
Using a low F#5 chord in combination with an open E string, Kings Of Leon created a cool and memorable super simple riff that carries almost the entire song.
The only modification arrives in the second verse where the 2nd guitar adds to the riff by moving from the root of the F# to the b7 using a D shape.
There are more chords in Molly’s Chambers than just this verse riff. These are to be found in the chorus where we first move from A to B, play the riff, then from B to D, like this:
| B (IIx) | A (I) |
||: F#5 (VI) (F#/E F# F#/E F# F#/E) :||
| B (IIx) | D (IV) |
Both these movements border on being outside the key of F#m and therefore further add to the overall rock n roll vibe. That B chord should have been a Bm chord in order to remain diatonic.
