This is how I play it. (The chords do not always make sense but it sounds right if 
you have the right effects.)
There is no intro for this song. It begins with lyrics.
C                 G
Every day I get a little closer to, 
    Dm                   C
The things that I wanna, say with my life, 
      G          Dm
In no particular order
F                G
I'd like to make some sort of mark, 
Dm                C
So that the world knows I was here... 
         G
And I've been thinkin' about, 
Dm                 F
How I could scream it out loud, 
Dm         G
Or paint a picture somehow, 
Dm               G
A thousand miles long
Dm            D            F
And I've been tryin' 'till now, 
C               G
These walls are freakin' me out, 
Dm
Just need to let it all out, 
Am
And reach out, 
Dm                 G
Because sometimes, you can forget who you are
Dm                 G
I'm tired of trying to make it, 
Dm            F
I've spent so many nights, 
C                    G
Tryin' to get it all right, oh-oh-oh
Dm           G
I'm sick and tired of waiting, 
C                    F
For someone to see, and start believing in me, 

Oh-oh-oh
C                      G
But I know I'm not out here on my own... 
Dm                 E
Every year I get a little farther from, 
F                    G
Old misconceptions, that take the place, 
Dm
Of mistakes and lessons, 
C              G
There's things I've learned from, 
F
Things I've been burned from, 
Dm                    F              C
It's part of who I am And I've been thinkin' about, 
G                  Dm
How I could scream it out loud, 
Dm         G
Or paint a picture somehow, 
Dm               G
A thousand miles long
Dm            D            F
And I've been tryin' 'till now, 
C                G
These walls are freakin' me out, 
Dm
Just need to let it all out, 
Am 
And reach out, 
Dm                 G
Because sometimes, you can forget who you are
Dm                 G
I'm tired of trying to make it, 
Dm            F
I've spent so many nights, 
C                    G
Tryin' to get it all right, oh-oh-oh
Dm           G
I'm sick and tired of waiting, 
C                    F
For someone to see, and start believing in me, 

Oh-oh-oh
Dm                      C
But I know I'm not out here on my own... 
G                  C
There's been a lot of people, 
Dm        F
Think I'm goin' no where, 
G                  F                     G
Times that by ten, for every time I felt like turnin' around, 
Dm             F
But every time you said push on
Dm            G
And keep your head up, 
Em                                   F
Kept me on track from letting myself get fed up
Then end on a Cm
