   Comes atime (x02210@1)you need to               leave, all, that, behind,
   And the people gather 'round           for, the, last, show,

(Just to point out for anytime you get into the chorus, ingore the last part note of 
  the verse and just get on to the D. Whichever works for you this is how I do it)

Chorus      
 D (xx0232@1)               F (133211@1)Well there is all we want
                        Am (x02210@1)To live and die by the sword,
                               G (320003@1)Well they tried to complicate you

During the solo you can play the chorus if your going for rythym.

Maybe use a Wa-Wa pedal for this part because it sorta sounds like it 
  is being used in the song. Your choice!

  Use a different strumming pattern, 
  play, mute it and strum, rinse and repeat
 
  D (xx0232@1)               F (133211@1)Well there is all we want
                        Am (x02210@1)To live and die by the sword,
                               G (320003@1)Well they tried to complicate you

                    F (133211@1)All the worldly possessions

Hold each note for 2 beats.

(The Wa-wa pedal or turn the gain up)
