Yeah I couldn't find how it should go either so I had to drastically alter it.

The Chords are complex also quite meaningless within the altered tuning I used, so I will do tab and number each Chord.

Tuning is Open D.

D A D F# A D

I---II---III--IV--V----VI---VII

Verse 1:

I-------------II----------III
Seems to me you are not real
I-------------II----------III
Seems to me you cannot feel
IV---------V-----------V/7
If I bleed, will you bleed back?
VI---------VII-----------VII/5
and if I die will your heart lack?

Chorus:

I--------------II-----------------
Please just go, I'm not looking back
III------------IV----------------
My life--------is more than that

Verse 2:

I gave and gave you all my heart
I prayed for you while I was in the dark
Seems to me that you need me
Seems to me that you could see

Chorus:

Please just go, I'm not looking back
My life is more than that

Bridge

I-II-III-IV-V-VI-VII

Verse 3:

Why did you find ways to die
Without a chance to see you cry?
Seems to me you wouldn't dare
Aren't you here, don't you care?

Chorus:

Please just go, I'm not looking back
My life is more than that

If you were to sing it, you will notice you have to hold on notes for quite long periods at the end of verse and chorus to make the music work properly.

Let me know what you think.
