This is pretty much a slightly more complicated version of the tabs that are already 
posted, but this is how I've been playing it.

(standard tuning)
D and Dsus are interchangeable; use whatever you're more comfortable with.


Em           C       G-Dsus
You are my only escape
    Em         C             G-Dsus
You are the reason that I wait
        Em         C             G-Dsus
On the corner of this empty street
  Em       C               G-Dsus
Oh I just can't wait to meet
Em             C           G-Dsus
There's so much a man can do
     Em             C           G-Dsus
And there's so much a man can say
    Em          C                  G-Dsus
See I have done so many things wrong
          Em             C      G
That you should've thrown me away


Bm         G
I've got this second chance
D          A
I'm gonna take it
Bm         G
I've got this song and dance
D          A
I'm gonna take it
Bm        G
I've got all that I need
D           A
And I can taste it
G
I've got you next to me
    D
And I don't want to waste it


Em          C         G-Dsus
You are my only embrace
Em                 C                G-Dsus
You are the light that lights my face
Em      C                G-Dsus
Any fool would do the same
Em
oohh..
      C               G-Dsus
To follow in your trace
     Em          C          G-Dsus
And people come and people go
       Em           C               G
That I know I should've been replaced
         D
I know that

I'm gonna take it
               Bm
All that I can get
                A
I'm gonna take it


       Em           C
It's beautiful the way you love
     G               Dsus
The way you take me back
Em                C
Here she comes around the bend
      G                 D
She's coming to take me back


Bm         G
I've got this second chance
D          A
I'm gonna take it
Bm         G
I've got this song and dance
D          A
I'm gonna take it
Bm         G
I've got all that I need
D          A
And I can taste it
