Intro:
F# A E x2

Verse:
F#            A              E
  Start the day against the voices
F#              A                D
  The ones that tell me that I'm wrong
Bm             F#                   E
  I hear them now, screaming their delusions
Bm            F#                D
  I close my eyes, and they're gone

Pre-Chorus:
Am
  If they ain't singing,
E
  If they're just talking,
F#
  Let them keep talking to themselves
D
    'Cause everybody knows,

Chorus:
Am
  The hardest war to fight
E
  Is a fight to be yourself
F#
  In a world that tries to
D (Strum only once in 1st chorus, continue to strum in others)
Turn you into someone else

Interlude:
F# A E x2

Verse:
Same chords
Start the road against the voices,
I pick a path out in the woods,
I made mistakes, I got the scars to prove them
I'd change the past if i could.

Pre-Chorus
Chorus

Bridge:
This part's tricky.  The first couple chords, you strike twice and mute, then go 
to the next one.  It would really help to watch a video while learning this part.

F# C#m (D* A/C# Bm* A*) whole thing x3
Chords in parentheses are only struck twice before moving on.

F# C#m D* Dmaj7 D

Pre-Chorus, end D play with high e string to change sound like Jon does every two strokes

Chorus til end

There you go! That's how i play it, and it sounds right to me.
