Well I found that the highest rated version of this song used a capo, and I've been
this song fine for quite a long time, no capo, simple chords, so I thought I'd throw my 
out there. :].
Very simple song, very fun to play.
The verse, and the interlude are palm muted the entire time, while the chorus is 
strumming.
The strumming pattern is easy to figure out, it's the same all the way through.

D# Standard [D#,G#,C#,F#,A#,D#]
Everything is tuned down one half step.
And the chords that I write, are what they would be in standard tuning, for simplicity.
E   - 0,2,2,1,0,0
A   - x,0,2,2,2,0
B   - x,2,4,4,4,2
EM7 - 0,2,1,1,0,0

    EI'm (022100@1)checking your pulse, I'm giving you air
         ABut (x02220@1)your body disagrees

        BAnd (x2444x@1)you carry me home?
                      ECause (022100@1)I know I wasn't here"

    EI'm (022100@1)closing your blinds, I'm shutting your eyes
        A (x02220@1)                  EAnd (022100@1)now I'm afraid I have to go
 AWhoa (x02220@1)
    EI'd (022100@1)sing you a song but I'm feeling quite off
      A (x02220@1)            EIn (022100@1)my heart,It's occupied
              AAnd (x02220@1)now's not the time

Interlude: [E,A,E,Em7] (palm muted)

      ELet's (022100@1)try this again and this time don't laugh

                          EI'm (022100@1)working on my play on words
              Em7
