This is 99.9% accurate I hope as I listened to it for ages trying to work it all out. 
it's a great song so I hope you enjoy :-).

Approx. Tempo: 120-130

(This chord progression continues throughout the song)

G5           G5/C        G5/E

e----        e----       e----|
B----        B----       B----|
G---- X 16   G---- X 16  G----| X 16
D-12-        D-12-       D-12-|
A-10-        A-10-       A-10-|
E----        E--8-       E--0-|

(Intro)

G5 G5/C G5/E G5/C X 2

(Verse 1)

G5               G5/C
  All this feels strange and untrue
         G5/E                  G5/E
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
Cause I need you to look into mine

(Chorus 1)

(While the same chord progression is still playing this comes over the top and continues 
the song):

e--------|
B---12---|
G-12--12-|
D--------|
A--------|
E--------|

Tell me that you'll open your eyes x4

(Verse 2)

Get up get out get away from these liars
Cause they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine

(Chorus 2)

(This continues throughout the song):

e----
B----
G----
D-12-
A-10-
E----

Tell me that you'll open your eyes x8

(Bridge)

(Outro)

(Just the same as verse 1)

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you.

(End on G5/C)
