[Intro]
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2 x2
[Verse 1]
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
All this feels strange and untrue and I won't waste a minute without you
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
My bones ache, my skin feels cold and I'm getting so tired and so old
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
The anger swells in my guts and I won't feel these slices and cuts
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
I want so much to open your eyes 'cause I need you to look into mine
[Chorus 1]

[Verse 2]
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
Get up, get out, get away from these liars 'cause they don't get your soul or your fire
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
Take my hand knot your fingers through mine and we'll walk from this dark room for the last time
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
Every minute from this minute now we can do what we like anywhere
G5 Csus2 Em7 Csus2
I want so much to open your eyes 'cause I need you to look into mine
(piano comes in with G5 and continues until Outro)
[Chorus 2]
Lead melody as before, just twice as long and with Piano. Athmospheric sounds from 3rd, strings from 4th rep.

There's a few errors... or corrections should i say! First of all, it's a good tab!
1-
The chord progression in the Intro is the exact same all the way through the song, it doesn't change or repeat, at least that's what i can hear.
2-
The riff is actually, also from what i can hear:
|
B-----12----|
G---12--12--|
D-12--------|
A-----------|
E-----------|
This is the repeated pattern through the song. At least in my opinion.. it would make sense to have this as the pattern as it fits better with the rhythm of the song, where as what 'guitargreenhorn' put would mean that you would have to pause between the repeat of that pattern or at least slow it down. 4 notes per pattern fits a lot better with the song.

just my 2 cents guys, for the bridge, if you want to have an acoustic set, you guys can try having a second guitar play
G: 355433
C?: x35533
Em: 022000
then back to C?
cheers!
