Instead of trying to roadmap everything with a jumble of notes, here's the entire song as-is. Everything is played in straight 16th notes. Just follow along. Lyrics below.

We just fought two hours and seven minutes. Honestly, I'm surprised we made it. I retired to my chair, I grabbed my new guitar, But I can't make a sound. You could hear poisonous pins dropping all around like rain. But I can ride this storm out, Because I'm like a junkie for your smart mouth. [Chorus 1] See, I'm so far off the map the sun is shining While it's raining, and I'm draped in silver lining. And I can row, row, row my boat back to shore some day. So, are you coming with me? Anchors away! [Verse 2] I loosen my lips, and the truth slips out. A free ride on a forked tongue, This twine of trust is unspun. I could start to believe that's what you need from me, So far from what I want for you, But I'll lock it down, and we'll make do. You're right, there's only one real option, And I'm here now, so help me keep my voice down. [Chorus 2] See, I'm so far off the map the sun is shining While it's raining, and I'm draped in silver lining. And I can row, row, row my boat back to shore some day. So, are you coming with me? Anchors away! [Chorus 3] Yeah, I'm so far off the map the sun is shining While it's raining, and I'm draped in silver lining. And I can row, row, row my boat back to shore some day. So, are you coming with me? Anchors away! ===============================================================================
