Power chords work, but this is how I prefer to play the open chord shapes:
 
Gadd11 320010
Fmaj7  133210
      (t)
 
[Intro]
 
Am Gadd11 Fmaj7    Gadd11
 
[Verse]
 
Am            Gadd11           Fmaj7     Gadd11
  Sometimes I wonder where our lives go
Am              Gadd11         Fmaj7     Gadd11
  They question who we used to be
Am            Gadd11            Fmaj7          Gadd11
  Sometimes I feel like i'm the oxygen between
Am        Gadd11        Fmaj7     Gadd11
  the cigarette and gasoline
 
[Chorus]
 
Em        F         G
I can't sleep cause what if I dream
                      Am
Of going back to San Diego
             F
We bought a one way ticket
   C                    G
So we could go see the Cure
                   Am                    F
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
     C                       G                Am
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
         F     C   G
(To San Diego)
G                     Am   F
Can't go back to San Diego 
                      C    G
Can't go back to San Diego 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Am          Gadd11          Fmaj7      Gadd11
  Abandoned houses with the lights on
Am        Gadd11            Fmaj7      Gadd11
  Late at night I call your name
Am          Gadd11               Fmaj7                    Gadd11
  Abandoned love songs smashed across the hardwood floors
Am           Gadd11          Fmaj7      Gadd11
  I read the sadness on your face
 
[Chorus]
 
Em        F         G
I can't sleep cause what if I dream
                      Am
Of going back to San Diego
             F
We bought a one way ticket
   C                    G
So we could go see the Cure
                   Am                    F
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
     C                       G                Am
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
         F     C   G
(To San Diego)
G                     Am   F
Can't go back to San Diego 
                      C    G
Can't go back to San Diego 
 
[Bridge]
 
C                     Am
  I never needed to hear
                          G
All of the pain and the fear
                          F
Your secrets filled up my ears
         G
Like the ocean blue
C                      Am
  I never wanted to know
                           G
How deep these cuts on you go,
                      F           G
and like a river they flow to the ocean blue
 
[Interlude]
 
Am F C G (x2)
 
[Chorus]
 
                   Am
Going back to San Diego
             F
We bought a one way ticket
    C                   G
So we could go see the Cure
                   Am                    F
And listen to our favorite songs in the parking lot
     C                       G                Am
And think of every person I ever lost to San Diego
         F     C   G
(To San Diego)
G                     Am   F
Can't go back to San Diego 
                      C    G
Can't go back to San Diego 
 
[Outro]
 
Am Gadd11 Fmaj7    Gadd11   (x2)
