This is how I like to play the chorus, you can vary it. The chords are just E, F#, B, E

Changed bit after chorus:
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------13--14--13--11~-----13--14--13--11-------|
D|-----------------14----------------------------------------------------------14----|
A|---11--12---11--------11---12---11/16----------------------------------------------|
E|--0--0----0----0------0----0----0-------0---0---0---0-------0---0---0---0---0------|

This is one of their best and most emotional songs, have fun playing it! For the refrain bit, just mess around
with the chorus chords until you get something that works.
