To play the figure during the FF chords, just lift your middlefinger off the strings.
If you struggle with that, just listen and count, and it will become clear.
Also, mute the high e string with your other fingers when playing that.
The riff as in the verses is basically the same throughout the whole song, there are just slight changes in
the outro.

Intro:
C majorC FF x3

Verse 1:
     FF   C majorC
Each and every breath we take
 FF      C majorC
A augmentedA step towards death
        G+G
And the moon is pale
    A minorAm     G+G  FF
And we might have seen something

But we ain't seen nothing yet

Verse 2:
   FF     C majorC
And I may have dreamt it
   FF    C majorC
Or it may have happened
          G+G
When I stood right here
A minorAm   G+G   FF
Waiting for a sign
         C majorC FF C majorC
For me to walk away

Verse 3:
   FF     C majorC
But I give in so easy
   FF        C majorC
And I give up instantly
        G+G
I chase what is gone
    A minorAm     G+G    FF
And my friends are getting tired
          C majorC   FF C majorC
Of the shit that I pull

Verse 4:
     FF     C majorC
They say why do you love those

Who turn you into a fool?
          G+G
Why do you let them get to you?
A minorAm     G+G     FF
You should have been running
         C majorC  FF C majorC
When you chose to stay

Verse 5:
   FF    C majorC
Now I feel so far away
     FF       C majorC
From the person I once was

I thought love was enough
    A minorAm    G+G   FF
You can tell yourself so many things
           C majorC  FF C majorC
And nothing has to be true

Verse 6:
    FF    C majorC
Did you wake up last night
      FF         C majorC
Drenched in your old sweat and tears

No, it's not always easy
    A minorAm    G+G    FF
You get lost counting the years
     A minorAm       G+G    FF
Since you last felt like you were home
     A minorAm       G+G    FF
Since you last felt like you were home

Oh, I thought you were home
