To play the figure during the F 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 F  x3
C

Verse 1:
         F     C
Each and every breath we take
  F            C
A step towards death
                G
And the moon is pale
       Am         G    F
And we might have seen something
                              C F C
But we ain't seen nothing yet

Verse 2:
     F         C
And I may have dreamt it
      F        C
Or it may have happened
                   G
When I stood right here
Am      G     F
Waiting for a sign
                  C F C
For me to walk away

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

Verse 4:
         F          C
They say why do you love those
    F               C
Who turn you into a fool?
                    G
Why do you let them get to you?
Am         G         F
You should have been running
                  C   F C
When you chose to stay

Verse 5:
      F       C
Now I feel so far away
         F             C
From the person I once was
                   G
I thought love was enough
        Am        G      F
You can tell yourself so many things
                      C    F C
And nothing has to be true

Verse 6:
        F       C
Did you wake up last night
            F                  C
Drenched in your old sweat and tears
                    G
No, it's not always easy
        Am        G       F
You get lost counting the years
          Am             G        F
Since you last felt like you were home
          Am             G        F
Since you last felt like you were home
          Am             G        F
Since you last felt like you were home
                            C
Oh, I thought you were home
