This is the "simple"/beginners version, for people starting to play guitar. Not made by a professional musician and a different version of this chord progression was modified to make this version. A lot of you have pointed out, version 3 here on UG seems to be more appropriate so go check that one out as well. Thank you for all the ratings and the prais. It is, of course, highly appreciated. Have fun playing :).
Difficulty: beginner
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: G

Notes:
*  = can be played but to get a more bass heavy end focus on the lower tuned strings in the G-chord
Am* = can also be swapped for the C-chord
 
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Am             D
   High dive into frozen waves
      Em       Bm           C
where the past comes back to life
Am                D
   Fight fear for the selfish pain
   Em        Bm      C    G
it was worth it every time
Am                  D
   Hold still right before we crash
      Em         Bm        C
Cause we both know how this ends
Am                 D
A clock ticks till it breaks your glass
   Em       Bm       C     G
And I drown in you again
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am*               D
   Cause you are the piece of me
Em   Bm   C
   I wish I didn't need
Am*        D
   Chasing relentlessly
Em     Bm          C          G
   Still fight and I don't know why
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Am       D       Em      Bm      C
  If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy
Am     D     Em
If our love's insanity why are you my clarity
 
 
[Instrumental]
2x
Am D Em Bm C
Am D Em Bm C G
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Am       D      Em     Bm      C
  If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy
Am       D      Em
  If our love's insanity why are you my clarity
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Am                D
   Walk on through a red parade
   Em       Bm      C
And refuse to make amends
Am                      D
   It cuts deep through our ground
            Em         Bm     C     G
And makes us forget all common sense
Am                D
   Don't speak as I try to leave
     Em          Bm          C
Cause we both know what we'll choose
Am                   D
   If you pull, then I'll push too deep
    Em            Bm          C  G
And I'll fall right back to you
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am*               D
   Cause you are the piece of me
Em   Bm     C
   I wish I didn't need
Am*        D
   Chasing relentlessly
Em       Bm         C          G
   Still fight and I don't know why
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Am     D      Em     Bm       C
If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy
Am     D       Em     Bm      C      G
If our love's insanity why are you my clarity
 
 
[Interlude]
2x
Am D Em  Bm      C
        ...Why are you my clarity  
Am D Em  Bm       C
        ...Why are you my remedy 
Am D Em
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Am       D      Em     Bm       C
  If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy
Am       D      Em
  If our love's insanity why are you my clarity

I just listened to the acoustic version, and I think G-D-Em-C on capo 1 sounds accurate.

For those of you who are beginners and cannot change chords as fast, I recommend using the same chords, but don't play the Bm. It still sounds accurate, but it makes it a little easier for people still learning to play.
