I'm not entirely sure that the lyrics are 100% accurate. It kinda sounds like he's 
saying "every year.." before "there's a place...". And the part in the last 
chorus, "send all my love...", I'm sure if that is correct as well.

Standard Tuning

F (x03211)
C (x32010)
C*(x32013)(Don't know what this chord is called so I put an * to differentiate it 
from a normal C.)
Dm(xx0231)
Bb(x13311)

Intro
F        C*        Dm       C (x2)


Verse  1
F                 C*            
  I'll take a photograph

Dm                  C*
  Whatever makes you laugh

F               C*             Dm          C*
  But come on step out of the rain

F                            C*   
   You'd hate to catch your death

Dm                     C*
  All the life that you got left

F                 C*               Bb
   Lit up like a candle on your face



           F               C*  
There are words that are fading

         Dm                 C* 
And I'm trying not to say them 

F               C*         Dm          C*
Before they fall into the fog


Pre-chorus
Bb                    F
But every single day, once or twice an hour

Bb                                   C
The shadow falls away and I see you walking in a straight line


Chorus
F                    C
And the pain is gone, the pain is gone

Dm                      Bb
I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

F                    C
Now the pain is gone, the pain is gone


Dm                      Bb
I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

      F                  C
Every year, there's a place
 
     Dm             Bb
Only you and I go



Verse 2

F

F                        C*
  I didn't mean to push you

        Dm                   C*      
I didn't mean to laugh when you fell       

F                    C*                  Dm          C*
   I didn't mean to shout when you got hurt

F                     C*
  I didn't mean to argue

         Dm                  C*
I didn't mean to criticize you

         F                        C*            Bb
And I'm sorry for saying I didn't like your skirt

           F                  C*
There are demons that are screaming
 
       Dm               C* 
And I'm trying not to feed them 

    F             C*          Dm               C*
As I carry water for us through the dirt


Pre-chorus
Bb                       F
I always need you here, I always need you near me

Bb                                 C
I don't know what I'd do if I was walking here without you

Chorus
F                       C
   And the pain is gone, the pain is gone

Dm                        Bb
  I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

F                      C
  Now the pain is gone, the pain is gone


Dm                        Bb
  I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

     F                   C
Every year, there's a place
 
     Dm              Bb
Only you and I go

          F              C
There are things, about me 

     Dm                    Bb
Only you will ever know


Solo
F     C      Dm     Bb(x3)



Final Chorus

F                       C
   And the pain is gone, the pain is gone

Dm                        Bb
  I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

F                      C
  Now the pain is gone, the pain is gone

Dm                        Bb
  I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

      F                 C
Send all my love, send all my love
 
Dm                        Bb
  I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

      F                 C
Send all my love, send all my love
 
Dm                        Bb
  I recognize it but it's unfamiliar

          F              C
There are things, about me 

     Dm                Bb
Only you will ever know


F      C       Dm       Bb



    F              C
And this sweet dream 

  Dm       Bb
Will end

            F            C
And I will wake from this life

Dm              Bb                     F 
      Again.....and again.....and again...and again...and again
