[Verse 1]
Am
How I survived the massacre
Dm G
I'll never understand
Am
I fought the fight as hard and strong as any other man
Am
Yet I return as hero
Dm G
While they return as ghosts
Am
A heavy burden on the hearts of those they love the most
[Chorus]
Am Dm
Take me back to the place where I used to be
G Am
Before I lived a lifetime
Dm
Show me all of the love that I used to see
G Am
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
E Am
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
[Verse 2]
Am
Now my reward is peace and quiet
Dm G
Of both I'm never sure
Am
The sound of silence scares me senseless
Am
Ever since the war
Dm G
I drink away my memories
Too vicious to be told
Am
The hollow heart I carry now is no good for my soul
[Chorus]
Am Dm
So take me back to the place where I used to be
G Am
Before I lived a lifetime
Dm
Show me all of the love that I used to see
G Am
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
E Am
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
Am Dm
Take me back to the place where I used to be
G Am
Before I lived a lifetime
Dm
Show me all of the love that I used to see
G Am
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
E Am
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
[Outro]
G Am
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
E
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
Am Dm E Am x2

It's [capo] on 2nd - apart from that: great! Add this correction and I'll reward 5 stars :-)
As a bonus, you could add this interlude after the first chorus:
Am Dm G Am
Interlude after second chorus is
Am Dm Am Dm
Outro is
Am Dm E Am
Am Dm E Am
I have no clue about the tabs, but the picking pattern is something in terms of this:
Am E/G Dm
E|---x-x---x-x-|---x-x---x-x-|---x-x---x-x-|
B|-------------|-------------|---x-x---x-x-|
G|---x-x---x-x-|---x-x---x-x-|-------x-----|
D|-------x-----|-------------|-x-----------|
A|-x-----------|-------x-----|-------------|
E|-------------|-x-----------|-------------|
I'm not sure about the Dm. You could play (D - [G+E]) (D - [G+E]) instead of (D [B+E]) (G [B+E]), but I mentioned the more "complex" version for the sake of similarity. I like the easier D-[G+E] version (I hope you understand ;-)
