This is a song I happen to love and have seen many people do WRONG version of. And I 
wanted to share my knowledge of this great song!

FIRST TAB! Please feel free to send comments and whatnot !

During the main riff the chords are simply:
Bm, A, Bm, A

Verse1:
BmTear (x24432@1)in two, she lies awake
    GThe (320003@1)moon lights up the room like day
  EmAnother (022000@1)night she spends alone
     GWithout (320003@1)his touch of skin so cold

Main Riff:
Bm, A, Bm, A

BmThe (x24432@1)blood is running through her veins
     GWith (320003@1)every beat, there's no escape
EmLost (022000@1)in everything she trusts
GStill (320003@1)can't seem to get enough

Pre-Chorus:
BmEven (x24432@1)though the world she loves
         GIt (320003@1)won't ever be the way it was
        EmAnd (022000@1)his heart of stone left hers breaking

Chorus:
G (320003@1)   A (x02220@1)        BmEvery (x24432@1)night she cries
                  G (320003@1)            AAnd (x02220@1)dies a little more each time
        BmSay (x24432@1)you love me
Em (022000@1)    D (xx0232@1)   G (320003@1)   EmNothing (022000@1)left inside
        Bm (x24432@1)    ASay (x02220@1)you love me
        G (320003@1)          A (x02220@1)      BmAnd (x24432@1)the silence will set her free

Verse 2: (repeat chord progression for V1)

Memories, they take her back
Every moment fades to black
Every kiss and every taste
She wishes time would ease the pain

Pre-Chorus: (same as last)
Even though the world she loves
It won't ever be the way it was
And her heart is weak, her hands are shaking

Chorus: (same as last)
Every night she cries
And dies a little more each time
Say you love me
Nothing left inside
Say you love me
And the silence will set her free

                   Bm (x24432@1)                        GCause (320003@1)I am just so broken by the bitterness of loneliness

I'm so scared of this
