This 2nd riff joins the first here...

  Something about me stinks
  something about me smells
  I don't want that to be, how you remember me
  Something about me stinks

  If I was not so strange
  if I can only change
  I wouldn't be so far, from standing where you are
  If I was not so strange

Play this twice...

  A-------------------------7---7--|--------------------------------|
  E-0------------------------------|-0--------------0---------------|

Then back to the verse, same as the first...

  Every way I look is south
  Everywhere I look is south
  If I could tune my vision out, I could hear you nice and loud
  Everywhere I look is south

  Something about me's weak
  if I could only tweak
  myself from the inside out, I could turn my life around
  if I was not so weak

Now this...

  A-2-2-----------7------------0-2-|-3-3-----5h7p5---5h7-3---5---7--|
  E-0-0----------------------------|---------------8----------------|

  E                           C
  Doesn't have to be the only way to common ground
  E                           C
  Absence was an option only waiting to be found
          E                               C
  But the further that I float along, the sooner I could sink
             E                           C
  And in the end it only matters if you feel that you could think of me the same


Then this 4 times, the last time just hold the B thru the end of the last measure...

    B               G       A   C    B               G       A   C
  E--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
  B--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
  G--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
  D-4-4---4-4---------------2---2--|-4-4---4-4---------------2---2--|
  A-2-2---2-2-------2---2---0---3--|-2-2---2-2-------2---2---0---3--|
  E-----------------3---3----------|-----------------3---3----------|

Or this works just as good in place of the last riff...

  E--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
  B--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
  G--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
  D-9-9---9-9-------5---5---7---10-|-9-9---9-9-------5---5---7---10-|
  A-9-9---9-9-------5---5---7---10-|-9-9---9-9-------5---5---7---10-|
  E-7-7---7-7-------3---3---5---8--|-7-7---7-7-------3---3---5---8--|


Then back to the beginning, with these lyrics...

  Every way I look is south
  everywhere I look is south
  If I could tune my vision out, I could hear you nice and loud
  Every way I look is south

  Something about me stinks
  something about me smells
  I don't want that to be, how you remember me
  Something about me stinks

Here's a riff Jake uses a lot to finish off a verse or whenever...

Thanks to Logan "bonhamdrummer" for this one:
This lick (at 1:56) is all triplets. I have the eighth note count notated above it. It 
on the And of 4.
