These chords are an INTERPRETATION of this song.  This is NOT an exact rendition 
of the arrangment by Black Lab.  It's an acoustic adaptation.  Still, you may find it useful.
(Pick the verses rather than strum, keep the picking pattern simple)

          Am              E
There are things I have done.
            E           Am
There’s a place I have gone.
         Am(bar)              E
There’s a beast and I let it run
                 E   Am
now it’s running my way.
          Am           E
There are things I regret
             E                Am
You can’t forgive you can’t forget
          Am(bar)        E
There’s a gift that you sent
            E   Am
you sent it my way.

(Yes … the verse DOES end w/ Am and Chorus still starts with Am
If you pick the verse and strum the chorus it works great)

Chorus:

              Am
So take this night
          G
Wrap it around me like a sheet.
   Dsus2
I know I’m not forgiven
       E
but I need a place to sleep.
              Am
So take this night
        G
Lay me down on the street.
  Dsus2
I know I’m not forgiven
       E                            Am
but I hope that I’ll be given some peace.

(Verse 2:  Back to simple picking.)
(Follow the Am-2x E-2x pattern originally set in the first verse and remember this song 
all about vocal inflection not guitar prowess ... listen to the song if you don't 
me.)

There’s a game that I played.
There are rules I had to break.
There’s mistakes
that I made but I made them my way.
So take this night
and wrap it around me like a sheet.
I know I’m not forgiven
but I need a place to sleep.
So take this night
and lay me down on the street.
I know I’m not forgiven
but I hope that I’ll be given some peace.

Some peace, some peace.
