I finger pick this song, a lot of the 5 star versions did not sound like the song 
exactly to me so I tried to do this by ear.. Please rate so I know how I did. I 
used the spacing as an indication to the tempo..

     {    w/ thumb  }
           {Pointer, Middle}
           {& Thumb Combo  }    {Thumb}

Here is the Pre-Chorus and then the Chorus:



Pre-Chorus:
            F     G     Am
And I'll be gone gone tonight
                      F        G   Am
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
                     F      G       Am
The way that I been holdin' on too tight
                   G  
With nothing in between



Chorus:
     C 
The story of my life I take her home
    F                                   Am
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
   F    C
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
     C
The story of my life I give her hope
    F                                Am          F
I spend her love until she's broke inside
                C
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
