Note: It hard to tab this song as Chis's vocals could be somewhere C to D. (I'm not a good vocalist) Anyway, try to sing to the chord and you find it okay. Intro: C7 Gmaj Cmaj Bmin Gmaj Cmaj Gmin Gmaj Cmaj Bmin Amin D7 Verse 1:

^CmajIt could be worse, I could be ^Fmajalone,

I could be ^Aminlocked in here on my ^Gmajown, ^CmajLike a stone that suddenly ^Fmajdrops,

It never ^D7stops, ^Gmajno, ^CmajI could be lost,

Or I Could be ^Fmajsaved, Calling ^Aminout from beneath the ^Gmajwaves,

^CmajBeaten down by this ocean ^Fmajrain, Never ^D7again,

Never ^Gmajagain, Note: During the "Ohh, ohh, ohh," part in the chorus, Jonny play the same as the intro.

Chorus:

^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Bminohhh, ^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Gmajohhh,

^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Bminohhh, ^AminScreaming out from the crests of ^D7waves,

Note: Same as the intro. Instrumental: Gmaj Cmaj Bmin Gmaj Cmaj Gmaj Gmaj Cmaj Bmin Amin D7 Verse 2:

^CmajIt could be worse, Bitter or ^Fmajsweet,

It could be ^Aminsnapped from the jaws of ^Gmajdefeat, ^CmajLike a light lit upon a ^Fmajbeach,

Wear your ^Aminheart on your sleeve, ^GmajOh,

^CmajYou want to stop before you ^Fmajbegin, You want to ^Aminsink when you know you could ^Gmajswim,

^CmajYou want to stop just before you ^Fmajbegin, Never ^D7give in,

Never ^Gmajgive in, Note: Same as the first chorus.

^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Bminohhh, ^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Gmajohhh,

Bridge:

Nothing ^Aminmatters, Except ^Cmajlife and the love you ^Fmajmake,

Nothing ^Aminmatters, Except ^Cmajlife and the love you ^Fmajmake,^Amin

Except ^Cmajlife and the love you ^Fmajmake, Chorus:

^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Bminohhh, ^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Gmajohhh,

^GmajOhhh, ^Cmajohhh, ^Bminohhh, ^AminScreaming out from the crests of ^D7waves,

^AminWhere your longing to be ^D7saved, ^AminScreaming out from the crests of ^D7waves,

^AminWhere your longing to be ^D7saved, ^AminScreaming out from the crests of ^Dminwaves,

Note: About the chorus & intro, I still don't really know how to show you guys the way of struming on some parts of the strings & in the same time to change the chords. I guess you'll have to try it out if you know the song very well.
