This may not be the exact way Chris plays it, but it sounds really good and it's a lot 
on the finger picking parts.

     E      G/B     Asus

INTRO:
E G/B Asus

VERSE 1:
                E
She smiled in a big way
                         G/B
The way a girl like that smiles
                  Asus
When the world is hers. And she held your eyes
           E                      G/B
Out in the breezeway, down by the shore
            Asus
In the lazy summer
                   E
And she pulled you in
                 G/B
And she bit your lip
                 Asus
And she made you hers
           E
She looked deep into you as you lay together
G/B                            Asus
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer


CHORUS:
           E,G/B   Asus
But you�ve already lost
           E,G/B   Asus
But you�ve already lost
           E,G/B   Asus
But you�ve already lost
              E          G/B       Asus (strum once)
When you only had barely enough to hang on


VERSE 2:
                    E
And she combed your hair
                    G/B
And she kissed your teeth
                 Asus
And she made you better than you�d been before
                 E
And she told you bad things
                          G/B
that you wished you could change
            Asus
In the lazy summer
                 E
And she told you laughing
            G/B
down to her core
                 Asus
So she would not cry and she lay in your lap
             E
as she said  �Nobody here can live forever
G/B                   Asus
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer.�


[CHORUS]


BRIDGE- Here's where you finger pick the same chords (E, G/B, Asus), but you do the Asus 
Listen to the song for timing.

    E         G/B       Asus      Asus
eb|-----0---------0---------0---------0------------------------------|
Bb|-------0---------0---------0---------0----------------------------|
Gb|-1---------2---------2---------2----------------------------------|
Db|---2---------1---------2---------2--------------------------------|
Ab|-2---------2---------0---------0----------------------------------|
Eb|------------------------------------------------------------------|

(finger pick)
          E         G/B       Asus        Asus
She said �No one is alone the way you are alone.�
And you held her looser than you would�ve if you ever could�ve known
Some things tie your life together
With slender threads of things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last

FINAL CHORUS:

           E,G/B   Asus
But you�ve already lost
           E,G/B   Asus
But you�ve already lost
           E,G/B   Asus
But you�ve already lost
              E         G/B               Asus
When you only had barely enough of her to hang on
      E
Hang on
     G/B
Hang on
     Asus
Hang on

That's it. Simple and sweet.
