Kris' version of the song is the same as the original, but he puts a

Capo on the 2nd fret.

[Intro]              (looks like Glen uses his thumb to play the low F)

[Verse 1 - same as intro] (match up the chords for the timing of lyrics)

[Verse 2 (this part is an approximation but is close; piano and vocals kind of
  drown out the guitar, so just play some similar arpeggio based on the chords]

Am (x02210@1)    G (320003@1)     F (133211@1)     G (320003@1)     Am (x02210@1)       strum F...crescendo into Chorus

[Chorus] (relatively metered strums [8th notes] with up-strums [16th notes]
           just before each chord transition)

C (x32010@1)               F (133211@1)               Am (x02210@1)                  F (133211@1)  Take this sinking boat and point it home, we've still got time

[Verse 1]
   C (x32010@1)             F (133211@1)                C (x32010@1)                F (133211@1)  Falling slowly, eyes that know me, and I can't go back
   C (x32010@1)                F (133211@1)           C (x32010@1)                  F (133211@1)  Moods that take me and erase me, and I'm painted black

[Verse 2]
   Am (x02210@1)     G (320003@1)        F (133211@1)       G (320003@1)              Am (x02210@1)       G (320003@1)           F (133211@1)  You have suffered e-nough and warred with your-self, it's time that you won

[Chorus]

C (x32010@1)            F (133211@1)            Am (x02210@1)            F (133211@1)  Falling slowly sing your melo-dy, I'll sing a-long

[Outtro] (lots of strums on F, while humming, then back to the intro once)

I got the original version from Aaron Rubin Esq. III, Jr. on tabondant.
