Verse:
(fingerpick these chords in different ways to get it to sound right,
 because I can't find a particular pattern)

FThere (133211@1)walked a lonely man
EmSilent (022000@1)mute the only man
    FNot (133211@1)knowing how, not knowing why
    EmWas (022000@1)he the sole survivor
FWhy (133211@1)should he be alive
EmBreathing (022000@1)still while others died
FAnd (133211@1)the only question
        EmWhy (022000@1)was he the sole survivor? [lead riff 1]

Lead riff 1:
E------------------|
B------------------|
G------------------|
D------------------|
A------------------|
E--8-7-5-5---------|

Chorus:   = slide down the neck towards the nut
  A (x02220@1)      F (133211@1)      GE--------------------------------------| (320003@1)(x4)
B--------------------------------------|
G--------------------------------------|
D-----7-------3-------5-------------|
A-----7-------3-------5-------------|
E-5-5-5---1-1-1---3-3-3--0-3--------|
(So basically just hit the bass note twice then strum the
full chord and slide it downwards toward the nut.)

Chorus lyrics:
Sole survivor
Cursed with second sight
Haunted savior
Cried into the night
Sole survivor
Cursed with second sight
Haunted savior
Cried into the night

That's all I have for now, but thats the majority of the song.
And of course the tab will make more sense if you listen to the song.
Feel free to add comments. Remember, this was all by ear but to me
it sounds really good ( that might just be my ego talking =P )
