Noticed there wasn't a version of this anywhere in the old www., so thought I'd do one. 
think it's pretty much spot on, but tell me if it isn't, or if you just want to praise 
:P

Intro (Played on keyboards, but can also be played on guitar. Mess with volumes and 
to get the volume increase in the song)

e ------------------|
B -12~~~~----13~~~~-|
G ------------------|
D ------------------|
A ------------------|
E ------------------|
(x2, then bass comes in, then play this once more before Josh plays:)

e ---10-------10-|
B 12~12----13~13-|
G 12~------12~---|
D ---------------|
A ---------------|
E ---------------|
(x2, then Faris comes in with vocals with no guitar)

With silent feet, my darling dreamer
She steps and skips around the lyre
And though I know, I cannot keep her
I sleep so gently for a while

e ---10-------10-|
B 12~12----13~13-|
G 12~------12~---|
D ---------------|
A ---------------|
E ---------------|
(x2, then back to vocals. Here, there is a synth bit which can be played on guitar. It's 
to play it on A String higher up the fret board than further down on D or G. Play this 
twice during the 2nd verse)

e -----------------------------------------------|
B -----------------------------------------------|
G -----------------------------------------------|
D -----------------------------------------------|
A 17~\15~~~~~-17~\15~~~~~-17~\15~~~~~-12~17~~~~~-|
E -----------------------------------------------|

2nd verse:
Now in ten years, my darling dreamer
She disappears into the sea
To have her here, awake from dreaming
Some things I fear never will be

(Then, the vocals stop and josh plays the main guitar riff:)

e -------15~-------------15~-|
B -12/13-----13-13-12-/13----|
G ---------------------------|
D ---------------------------|
A ---------------------------|
E ---------------------------|
(The Faris goes into the chorus. Josh keeps playing this riff the whole way through.)

Chorus:
I see a whole new way now
I see a new beginning
From the sky into the sea
A whole new way of living

(Then the song goes into the 3rd verse, during which the synth-like part is played)

e -----------------------------------------------|
B -----------------------------------------------|
G -----------------------------------------------|
D -----------------------------------------------|
A 17~\15~~~~~-17~\15~~~~~-17~\15~~~~~-12~17~~~~~-|
E -----------------------------------------------|

3rd verse:
Winter is here, a nervous vigil
I light the lamp for her to see
She turns to me, and her soft shadow
It stretches out along the beach

(Then all instruments stop, and this is played on keyboards. This is it on guitar:)

e -----------|
B -8888888-6-|
G -----------|
D -----------|
A -----------|
E -----------|
(This is played 8 times before guitar comes back with:)

e ---10-------10-|
B 12~12----13~13-|
G 12~------12~---|
D ---------------|
A ---------------|
E ---------------|
(Play this 4 times before singing comes in. Faris says something like 'And they go 
gain, gain, gain, gain, gain...etc. Whilst he does this, Josh plays the main riff again)

e -------15~-------------15~-|
B -12/13-----13-13-12-/13----|
G ---------------------------|
D ---------------------------|
A ---------------------------|
E ---------------------------|
(Keep playing this through the chorus, which comes in after 4 of the main riff. Just 
this riff until the end. I counted 16 more after this 4, so in all, you will play 20 
of this riff until the end)

Final choruses:
There is a whole new way now
From the sun and from the sea
There is a whole new way now
Such power running through me.

I see a whole new way now
A season in full flower
I see a whole new way now
And i can't live without it.

Great song, great band etc.
Cheers
