Standard Tuning, didn't really find a correct version on this one, so decided to sink 
my teeth into it, pretty sure most of it is correct, the open bright E-string on the 
Bm-chord might be opened for discussion, but i'm pretty sure i'm hearing it. Difficult 
to get this one a 100% correct, cause the chords are hidden quite good, but this will 
work great both when playing along with beth, and on your own.Enjoy!
 

Some chords to notice:

There are different ways to play a D6, preferred here are this one:



D6    
x
0
2
0
2
x

Another weird chord i'm ABSOLUTELY sure is in the start of 2nd verse, even how weird it 
might look Guess you can call it like : "BmMaj7Add11"-ish thing:

BmMaj7
 0
 3
 3
 4
 2
 x


And here's how they play some other chords, so you get just the right sound:

Bm:  Bm7:  Em7:  
0     2     7
3     3     8
4     2     7
4     4     9
2     2     7
x     x     0


The rest of them are pretty basic, as you probably can hear. Notice the rather significant 
differences between the first and second verse, so you dont just play them the same way.


Intro: basically just pluck around on your average Bm-chord, you can hit
 the 5th fret on your D-string from time to time, and also play down into
 the verse like 5-4-3-2-on your a-string to make a bridge into the verse.
 just when the voice kicks in. Just play around really, its a pretty loose
 song when it comes to selecting which tones to add to your chords for more
 texture.


Bm                     Em 
How can I forget your tender smile
                     Bm
Moments that I have shared with you

Dm
Our hearts may break

           C
But they're on their way

D6                        Bm      A
And there's nothing I can do   ..oo..

Ohh...

Bm7                A     Em7
So do what you're gotta do
                    Bm   A    Em                         
And don't misunder-      stand me
    Bm7            A            Em7     
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
Bm       A       Em 
    I'd do it again



BmMaj7                  
I can understand that it can't be

Bm
Guess it's hard as you were meant for me

Dm
But I can't hide my own despair

Bm              A
I guess I never will

Ohh...


So do what you're gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again


F
So tired of life

C
No fairytale

Dm
So hold your fire

Bm            A
'Cause I need you

Ohh...

Just do what you're gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again

Last chorus:

Bm7             A      Em7
Do what you're gotta do
                   Bm   A      Em  
And don't misunder    ..stand me

    Bm (799777)  A (577655)  Em
You keep going   over every word that we've said


Bm       A           Em            A
     But you don't have to      ..worry

Em
About me 

Outro: Bm  A   Em x3 and end on Bm again.
