These are the two main chords that make up the song
(actually, the main riff)

E--2--2--2-------2-------|
B--3--3--3-------3-------|
G--2--2--2-------0-------|
D--0-----0-------0-------|
A--------0---0---x-------|
E----------------3-------|

Strum those in rhythm, and it should sound right.
Those are the chords for all of the verse parts.
For the bridge, just apreggiate them.

The verse is just a repetition on those chords for 8 bars I think,
heres the chorus

G A Em G D
I'm almost drowning in her sea, shes nearly crawlin on her knees


Fpr the last chorus, its

G A Em A Em
I'm almost drowning in her sea, she's nearly crawlin on her knees,

G D
It's almost everything I need


Essentailly for everything not Tabbed out, play the main riff.
Good luck!
John
