I noticed this was not up in a full tab, so I quickly gave it a shot.
Let me know if you have any corrections.  There are obviously multiple guitars
so I attempted to tab whatever will get you the main sound of the song at the time.
Hope you enjoy it.  Awesome band.

Tuning:Drop C#

I'm drowning, but I don't care.
When you've got what I got, what I got, who needs air?  I don't need air.

Intro again

Verse 2 is same as verse 1, no repeat, then first line of pre-chorus
My addiction to danger like the rush of the sea,
like a wave on the rocks the lessons crash down on me
I don't need to prove the world to you, only to myself
so step back, look away, as I dive into the swell

Take me down to the river like a little child
and take my hand and tell me its okay to be wild
I never knew the world until I saw it through your eyes.
I never knew myself until I ripped off my disguise.

Chorus with intro background
Chorus twice normal

I have come to the realization that life is more than I have accomplished.
I have come to the realization that we have accomplished nothing at all.
True success is so selfless so live out
the song of your life as you give up the air that you breathe.
You don't need anything.
