This is how I strum this out on my acoustic

INTRO:
C  Cmaj7(?)  Am  G   F  Em   Dm   G
      \
       \
      (x20010)

VERSE:
         C                       Cmaj7
Well she tossed all night like a raging sea
Am                           G         F     Em     Dm     G
Woke up and climbed from the suicide machine
         C                       Cmaj7
With her spanish candles and her persian poems
Am                        G       F     Em     Dm    G
Stuck on the rocks inside opus 40 stoned
    C                            Cmaj7
And scratching her wrists in the pouring rain
    Am             G              F     Em    D   
She collapses down upon the ocean floor       again


CHORUS:

C        F              C
Tears in waves minds on fire
C       Am           D
Nights alone by your side


VERSE:

C                 Cmaj7
Catskill mansions buried dreams
    Am                    G                  F     Em     Dm    G
I'm alive she cried but i don't know what it means
C                              Cmaj7
somewhere out there across the moonlit sands
          Am                  G                F     Em    Dm    G
there's a line drawn like the lines on her own hand
    C                 Cmaj7
and slammin' her eyes lockin' the door
    Am             G              F    Em   D
she collapses down upon the ocean floor.... again


CHORUS:

C        F              C
Tears in waves minds on fire
C       Am           D
Nights alone by your side
