The chords can be played as barres or power-chords. I think orginally its played
as power-chords, but barres sound nice, too.

verse 1:
   DmDm
Your eyes were not blind still you could not see
 Bb majorBb
A augmentedA danger that you could not stop and not feel
     G minorGm		        FF
All these questions 'bout "heaven knows why"
            A augmentedA
Lost their meaning somehow

But I still wanna know how you felt
     DmDm
When you stood all alone at the edge of your life
	  Bb majorBb
And you've made your own choice between darkness and light
    G minorGm
And prepaired yourself for the end
FF		      A augmentedA
Your step right out of your life


refrain:
    DmDm			       Bb majorBb
And I'm sorry that I could not take all your worries
		    FF
You said goodbye to it all
			    A augmentedA
And your weakest hour made you fall
    DmDm		          Bb majorBb
And I'm sorry that I left you with all your worries
		        FF
Please don't blame me for your fall
		       A augmentedA        DmDm
Could I've ever saved you at all?

verse 2:
 DmDm
I thought we could meet up half way
  Bb majorBb
But damn you were already gone
  G minorGm		      FF
Prefering to walk that way all alone
  A augmentedA
But tell me now who had won?
    DmDm
There's so much that I could have shown you
  Bb majorBb
So many things left undone
  G minorGm		        FF
All you did could have been forgiven
  A augmentedA
But you didn't get along


refrain:
    DmDm			       Bb majorBb
And I'm sorry that I could not take all your worries
		    FF
You said goodbye to it all
			    A augmentedA
And your weakest hour made you fall
    DmDm		          Bb majorBb
And I'm sorry that I left you with all your worries
		        FF
Please don't blame me for your fall
		       A augmentedA        DmDm
Could I've ever saved you at all?

And your weakest hour made you fall
