none of this is my work, but i think its good.

*Introduction:

E -----------------------------------------|-------------------------|-
B --->13---13---13-------------------------|-------------------------|-
G --->14---14---14---14--14-------------14-|---(15, muted)-----------|-
D -----0----0----0---15--15---14---12---12-|-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-|-
A --------------------0---0---12---12---12-|-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-13-|-
E -----------------------------------------|-------------------------|-

E ---------------------------------|---------------------------------------|-
B ---------------------------------|---------------------------------------|-
G --------------12--------------14-|---------------------------------------|-
D --12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12-|-12--12--12--12------------------------|-
A --12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12-|-12--12--12--12--12-----------12-------|-
E ---------------------------------|-------------13--13--12^13/13/13--13/13|-

There are slight hints of other strings resonating or being softly
struck....do your best.

*Verse:

E ---------------------------------|---------------------------------|-
B -----11--11--11--11--11--11--11--|-12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--|-
G ------9---9---9---9---9---9---9--|--9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9--|-
D ------9---9---9---9---9---9---9--|--9---9---9---9---9---9---9---9--|-
A ---------------------------------|---------------------------------|-
E --0------------------------------|--0------------------------------|-

then (without tabbing the rhythm which I'll leave you to provide) but it's
kinda like waltz time (3/4) for the first 3 bars, then sort of 7/4 in the last
one.  (Alternatively, 3/4 for 4 bars then 4/4 for the last.  Be as pedantic
about this as you choose.)

E -----------|---------|----3--|---8-----7---|-
B -------12--|-----7---|----3--|---8-----7---|-
G -------11--|-----6---|----0--|---0-----0---|-
D -------12--|-----7---|----0--|---X-----X---|-
A -----------|---------|-------|---7-----6---|-
E ----10-----|---5-----|----3--|---8-----7---|-

*Chorus chords:

E ---------------------|----0-------------|-
B -------10------------|----5-------------|-
G -------9--(8 times)--|----5--(8 times)--|-
D -------7-------------|----4-------------|-
A -------X-------------|----0-------------|-
E -------8-------------|----5-------------|-



*Final progression:


E----------------|----------|-------------------------------
B----------3---7-|------8-7-|--3---5---(3---5)--------------
G---4-6-7--2---6-|--7-9-7-7-|--3---5---(3---5)--------------
D---2-4-5--0---0-|--0-0-0-0-|--0---0---(0---0)--------------
A---2-4-5--0---0-|--0-0-0-0-|--0---0---(0---0)--------------
E----------3---7-|--7-7-7-7-|--3---5---(3---5)--------------


The timing of the progression changes every 2nd time, so keep your ears peeled
(mainly re those last two chords, in parentheses).

Then finish up on a sweet sounding D chord, like:

E ---------X------------------------------------------------------
B ---------3------------------------------------------------------
G ---------2------------------------------------------------------
D ---------0------------------------------------------------------
A ---------X------------------------------------------------------
E ---------X------------------------------------------------------

And we're done.  Have fun...
