I used power chords for the entire song.
This is how I do the E in the beginning:
 
e|-x-|                    |-x-|                  |-x-|
B|-x-|                    |-x-|                  |-x-|
G|-9-| x8(a whole measure)|-8-| x4 (half measure)|-11-| x4 (half measure)
D|-9-|                    |-9-|                  |-9-|
A|-7-|                    |-7-|                  |-7-|
E|-x-|                    |-x-|                  |-x-|
 
Instead of that E you could do two bars of E5 and two bars of A5 for the first verse.
The bridge it's not that tricky, it could be done two ways, either play E5, B5, C#5, A5 for one bar each only
down strums or you can do this:
 
e|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
B|-9-x-7-x-9-9-7-|
G|-9-x-9-x-9-9-9-| (you can strum them or pluck them as long as the other strings don't ring it's fine)
D|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
A|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|
E|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-|

[Intro]
 
   E
(Usually play until it starts to sing but in the original it's just two bars and then he starts to sing)
 
[Verse 1]
 
             E
The ocean is heavy
                E
Your current is strong
                E
Your pulling me deeper
              E
Been here all along
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
 
             E5
Remember the time I first saw you
                      A5
Just thought you'd be mine and it felt so good
                 C#5
One look in your eyes and I swear I knew
        A5
Of your kiss, your touch, your love
 
[Chorus]
            E5     B5
And I can't breathe
          C#5 A5
I'm struggling
             E5  B5
My hearts at ease
          C#5
Cause I'm drowning
          A5
Cause I'm drowning
            E5
In your love
 
[Verse 2]
 
                  E5                         B5
It seems that the love songs have got it all wrong
                  C#5                   A5
I thought I would fly (we'll fly, we'll fly)
                E5                    B5
And its getting harder the further we fall
                C#5               A5
But I'm feeling high (so high, so high)
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
              E5                  B5
I took on the lies and played the fool
                   C#5          A5
I found there's no getting over you
                E5           B5
And all of this time I never knew
        C#5                    A5*
Of your kiss, your touch, your love
 
[Chorus]
 
            E5     B5
And I can't breathe
          C#5 A5
I'm struggling
             E5  B5
My hearts at ease
          C#5
Cause I'm drowning
          A5
Cause I'm drowning
            E5
In your love
 
[Bridge]
 
              E5
Oh, don't you break my heart now
B5
Don't leave me wanting more
C#5                   A5
Give me love, give me someone to hold
E5                            B5                  C#5    A5
Messing with the stars didn't get us very far, oh no, oh no
           E5
I'll never break your heart
B5
You're what I'm looking for
C#5               A5
All I need is you forever more
E5                            B5                  C#5    A5*
Messing with the stars didn't get us very far, oh no, oh no
 
[Chorus]
 
            E5     B5
And I can't breathe
          C#5 A5
I'm struggling
             E5  B5
My hearts at ease
          C#5
Cause I'm drowning
          A5
Cause I'm drowning
            E5 B5 C#5
In your love
 
A5
Drowning in your
E5
Drowning (drowning)
B5
Drowning (drowning)
C#5              A5
Drowning in your love
            E5
In your love
 
[Outro]
 
B5               C#5
Messing with the stars
A5                 E5*
Drowning in your love
