These are the two main chords that make up the song
(actually, the main riff)

E--2--2--2-------2-------|
B--3--3--3-------3-------|
G--2--2--2-------0-------|
D--0-----0-------0-------|
A--------0---0---x-------|
E----------------3-------|

Strum those in rhythm, and it should sound right.
Those are the chords for all of the verse parts.
For the bridge, just apreggiate them.

The verse is just a repetition on those chords for 8 bars I think,
heres the chorus

G+G     A augmentedA        E minorEm        G+G       D MajorD
I'm almost ..

Fpr the last chorus, its

G+G     A augmentedA        E minorEm        A augmentedA       E minorEm
I'm almost drowning ...

      G+G      D MajorD
It's almost ...


Essentailly for everything not Tabbed out, play the main riff.
Good luck!
John

This is a very simple song to play involving a few easy chords with
alternating bass strings played. The effectiveness comes from the haunting,
soulful vocals.
