This song is fairly straightforward - I've transcribed the chords for a single 
acoustic (or rhythmn) guitar. The C-Csus4 Am-Am6 G progression is played as 
follows - you'll have to get the timings by ear (probably the trickiest bit):

      C     Csus4      A     Am6        G (2 bars)
e|----0-0-0-0-0---|----0-0-0-0-0---|----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-
B|----1-1-1-1-1---|----1-1-1-1-1---|----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-
G|----0-0-0-0-0---|----2-2-2-2-2---|----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-
D|----2-2-2-3-2---|----2-2-2-3-2---|----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-
A|----3-3-3-3-3---|----0-0-0-0-0---|----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-
E|----------------|----------------|----3-3-3-3-3-3-3-etc


Intro: C Em Am F

Verse 1:

C
 The last time you walked away
                              Em
You left this weight with me,

It's in my heart it's on my back,
                         F
I think it might bury me,

I wanna cast you out,
                           G
But that's just half of me,
                                                        C - Csus4
The other half believes there's more to us than tragedy,


Bridge:

Am - Am6   G
But I can't do it on my own


Chorus:

C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
       F
Stay, stay, stay,
C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
              F
Or don't come back if you walk away,
C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
           F
I can't go on like it's all the same,
C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
         F
So stay, stay stay.


Verse 2:

C
  Don't tell me you're not safe,
                            Em
It sounds like a dare to me,
                                                          F
And if you doubt don't shut me out, that's not fair to me,
                                                        G
I know i hurt you too, When I was looking for clarity,
                                                        C-Csus4
But all I know is when I go, I want you there with me.


Am - Am6   G                 C-Csus4
'Cause I can't do it on my own,
Am - Am6     G                                        C
And if I got you I think I could hold on, hold on...


Chorus:

C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
       F
Stay, stay, stay,
C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
              F
Or don't come back if you walk away,
C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
           F
I can't go on like it's all the same,
C         Em       Am
Oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh,
         F
So stay, stay stay.
