Just made a few changes. Sounds better with A minor instead of C major in some places.

Intro:  C    G  (hold G)   Am   F    G    C   F   G  C   F    G 
C                                         G
Living next door to challenge Things will never be the same again
           Am         F                      G
I close my eyes and remember A place in the sun Where we used to live

Now every single hour

C                                G
You're sneaking around out there Hoping that I step on out
            Am                F            G
He longs for me, and someday we Will go downtown To Levy's bar

C     G   G   Am      G

C                                   G
Ask someone who knew me  They will never be the same again
                Am                   F              G
They tell their lives through sunken eyes Inside a song, it makes me cry

            Am           F         G          C     
Even though I know This ship will still sail on
F        G     Am   F G     F      G      
Long after I'm gone Gone...I will be gone 

(not really sure what to play in this little part; sounds like variations of C, F, 
and G)....then goes back to the following....

C      G   G    Am      F    G   

C                              G
In this world of wisdom No one never really has a clue
                Am           F                  G
They kill their lives every day With what they say and what they do

               Am             F      G        C
Heaven knows I know That the ship will still sail on
F      G       Am   F    Am F      G
Long after I'm gone Gone...I will be gone

C    F     G   x4
