To make it sound more like the original recording, you could hammer on and pull off on the first fret of
the B string during the first C and G chords in the chorus!
Enjoy! :)

[Verse]
Am           G         C          F
Why should I play this game of pretend?
  Am        G         C          F
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow?
Am           G       C        F
Such a great son and wonderful friend
    G         C        F
Oh, don't the tears just pour
 
Am           G      C          F
I could curl up and hide in my room
Am          G         C         F
There in my bed still sobbing tomorrow
Am            G    C         F
I could give in to all of the gloom
    G        C          G
But tell me, tell me what for
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                           C/E
Why should I have a heavy heart?
F                                   Am
Why should I start to break in pieces?
Dm                     C/E          G
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Why should I play the grieving girl and
G
Lie saying that I miss you
         Am                F                 G
And that my world has gone dark without your light
Dm     C/E     D/F# F      Am
I will sing no requiem tonight
 
 
[Instrumental]
Am   C F   G
Am   C F   G
 
 
[Verse]
Am             G        Em         F
I gave you the world, you threw it away,
Am            G      Em            F
leaving these broken pieces behind you
Am         G        Em         F
Everything wasted, nothing to say
    Dm            G
So I can sing no requiem
 
Am          G      Em       F
I hear your voice, feel you near
Am           G       Em          F
Within these words I finally find you
Am             G         Em           D
And now that I know that you are still here
  F            G
I will sing no requiem tonight
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                           C/E
Why should I have a heavy heart?
F                                   Am
Why should I say I'll keep you with me?
Dm                     C/E          G
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Why should I play the grieving girl and
G
Lie saying that I miss you
         Am                F                 G
And that my world has gone dark without your light
Dm     C/E     D/F# F
I will sing no requiem
G
Tonight
 
 
[Bridge]
                       F                        G
'Cuz when the villains fall, the kingdoms never weep
                F
No one lights a candle to remember
G                    F
No, no one mourns at all
                        G
When they lay them down to sleep
         Bb             F             C
So don't tell me that I didn't have it right
      Bb              F                C
Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white
      Bb                F            Bb              F
After all you've put me through, don't say it wasn't true
     Dm                              F
That you were not the monster that I knew,
 
 
[Chorus]
      C
Cause I cannot play the grieving girl and
G
Lie saying that I miss you
        Am                 F    C/E G
And that my world has gone dark
 
 
[Coda]
Dm     C/E     D/F#  F
I will sing no requiem
Dm     C/E     D/F#  F
I will sing no requiem
Dm     C/E     D/F#  F
I will sing no requiem
