{ G|-----14-----14-----4-----4---5-----5-----5-----5---------------------------|
{ D|-15-----15-----5-----5---------7-----7-----7-----7-------------------------|

G|---5-----5------7------7-----5-----5-----5-----5---------------------------| }
D|-----7-----7------9------9-----7-----7-----7-----7-------------------------| }
A|-8-----8-----10-----10-----8-----8-----8-----8-----------------------------| }
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| } and 
repeat the verse part<<

{the repetition ends instead with: }

{ e|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
{ B|---15-----15-----15-----15----------------------------------------------------|
{ G|-----14-----14-----16-----16---5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5----|
{ D|-15-----15-----17-----17---------7-----7-----7-----7-----7-----7-----7-----7--|
{ A|-----------------------------8-----8-----8-----8-----8-----8-----8-----8------|
{ E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

"If I could just leave my body for the night" yes, baby:

e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| }
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| }
G|---5-----5------7------7-----------------------------------------------| }
D|-----7-----7------9------9---------------------------------------------| }
A|-8-----8-----10-----10-------------------------------------------------| }
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| }

now for the amazing climax, play each chord according to the rhythm:

     C x2  D/BbM7 x6  F x2  G x2  C x2  D/BbM7 x6
e|---8-----1----------5-----7-----8-----1------------------------------------|
B|---8-----3----------6-----8-----8-----3------------------------------------|
G|---9-----2----------5-----7-----9-----2------------------------------------|
D|---10----3----------7-----9-----10----3------------------------------------|
A|---10----0----------8-----10----10----0------------------------------------|
E|---8----------------------------8------------------------------------------|

he begins singing: (you can play simple F and G to get the 6th string ringing.
I chose it this way in order to get a more high pitched sound similar to the song)

    F x2  G x2  C x2  D/BbM7 x6
e|--5-----7-----8-----1------------------------------------|
B|--6-----8-----8-----3------------------------------------|
G|--5-----7-----9-----2------------------------------------|
D|--7-----9-----10----3------------------------------------|
A|--8-----10----10----0------------------------------------|
E|--------------8------------------------------------------|  x4

"To hold you in time"
    G x2  D/BbM7 x6
e|--3-----1--------------|
B|--3-----3--------------|
G|--4-----2--------------|
D|--5-----3--------------|
A|--5-----0--------------|
E|--3--------------------| x4 and back to the repeated verse with the last line replaced 
by the line that went

before the beggining of the first verse (with simple repeated changes)

Have fun!
