hi, I have been trying to grasp the chords they're playing on this one -
even though they may play different variations of the chords as seen in the video, 
these go with the song very well

chords used:

E (022100@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A D (xx0232@1)name="chord_320003@1">G B (x2444x@1)name="chord_022000@1">e
Bm*  x 2 4 4 3 x
*    x x x x 3 2 very short
Em (022000@1) 0 2 2 0 0 0
**   x 2 0 x x x very short
A (x02220@1)  x 0 2 2 2 0
***  x x x 2 2 2 very short
Bmi (x2022x@1)7 9 9 7 7 7
Am7 (x02010@1)x 0 2 0 1 0
Em/G 3 2 2 0 0 0
G (320003@1)  3 2 0 0 3 3
F#m (244222@1)2 4 2 2 2 2

you can either play the opening part as chords (Bm D - Em G - A F#m7 - Bm)
or you can, like myself rather strum out individual strings to substitute
for whole chords (thus skipping transitions to D, G and F#m7) - these ar
noted below as *, ** and *** - the good thing about playing it this way is
that you can pretty much leave the fingers of your left hand (for 
right-handed players) in the position of the preceding chord - this makes
for a more consistent sound of the song, I feel. try it out both ways and you'll see.
Please note that I'm using Bm and Bm* which is the same chord only played 
at different parts of the neck.

Bm*           *    Em (022000@1)       **   A (x02220@1)        ***     Bm*

Bm*           *    Em (022000@1)       **
After leaving      my apartment
A (x02220@1)        ***     Bm*
I feel this        cold inside me

On my way to your apartment
I write for fear of silence
You carved a boat to sell my shadow
A (x02220@1)           Bm*    A (x02220@1)A (x02220@1)A (x02220@1)Now I walk alone

(keep playing A and gradually increase the intensity of the sound up to where they 
introduce a new set of chords)

this is pretty much most of the song, they have a bunch of guitars 
so unless you have a band, this works for the background guitar.
