NOTE: There are loads of erroneous tabs of this song
out there -- most include the wrong chords -- but it's
a very simple song to play. Every chord change...
every single one...is played as a quarter note followed
by strummed 8th notes. For example, the strumming
pattern for Verse 1 would be:
E5
Down, down/up/down/up/down/up
D5/F
Down, down/up/down/up/down/up
Asus2
Down, down/up/down/up/down/up
D5/F
Down, down/up
G5
Down, down/up
I've done my best to signal chord changes below by lining
them up on the actual lyric syllables they change on, but
if all else fails you can always just refer to the song
itself.
One more thing and I'll shut up. The structure of this
song is simplicity itself:
1. INTRO
2. VERSE
3. PRE-CHORUS
4. CHORUS
Then repeat 1-4 and tack on an outro. Very simple, very cool.
So have fun and don't forget -- STRUM IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT!

VERSE 1 (see bottom of tab for Verse 2 lyrics):
E5 D5/F Asus2 D5/F G5
Will I wake up, some dream I made up
G5/C G5
No, I guess it's reality-yyyy...
E5 D5/F Asus2 D5/F G5
What will change us, or will we mess up
G5/C G5
Our only chance to connect with a dre-eammm...
PRE-CHORUS:
D5 G5/C
Say a prayer for me (say a prayer for me)
D5 G5/C
Say a prayer for me (say a prayer for me)
D5 G5/C
Say a prayer for me (say a prayer for me)
G5/C
I'm buried by the sound...

CHORUS:
E5 G5/C
world of human wreck-age....in a
E5 G5/C
world of human wreck-age....in a
E5 G5/C
world of human wreck-age...where I'm
D5
lost and I'm found and I
G5/C

And now the easy part -- play the whole thing
all over again, beginning to end, except with
the following alteration to the INTRO riff:

Once you've played through the chorus again,
go straight to the...
OUTRO:

Will I wake up, some dream I made up
G5/C G5

And that's it. Like I said, very simple, very cool. :)
