Tune the low E MajorE string to D MajorD (1 step down) on guitar 1.
NB! spaces doesn't give exactly the right rythm, so listen to the song.
Vertically the two guitars should match.

Lyrics:
-------
[Verse 1:]
My friends are so depressed
I feel the question of your loneliness
Confide 'cause I'll be on your side
You know I will, you know I will
[Verse 2:]
Ex-girlfriend called me up
Alone and desperate on the prison phone
They want to give her seven years
For being sad
[Chorus:]
I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself
[Verse 3:]
My friends are so distressed
And standing on the brink of emptiness
No words I know of to express
This emptiness
[Chorus:]
I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself
[Solo #1]
[Middle part:]
Imagine me taught by tragedy
Release in peace
[Verse 4:]
I heard a little girl
And what she said was something beautiful
To give your love no matter what
Is what she said
[Chorus:]
I love all of you
Hurt by the cold
So hard and lonely too
When you don't know yourself
[Solo #2]
[Outro]
