While there are already (very) good tabs posted for this song, I wanted to post an alternate way in which I play it with the Capo on 5, where it's easier to play solo while still including all of the fills between chords in the verses.

[Intro - Main Riff] x4 [Verse 1 - Play chords exactly as in Main Riff]
          Am  Dm
Careless love

                          Am  Dm
Quit pouring honey in my ears

                                   Am  Dm
You're speaking diamonds crystal clear

                        Am  Dm
So far away I want you near
[Chorus - Try ro accent lower notes in Dm chords to dintinguish from Dm chords in verses]
               Dm                  F
Crying out for more, just a little more

                 Am                       G  (Gsus4 G)
Tied down on the floor like a prisoner of war

Dm                    F
Oh, I've been down so long

              Am                 G              Am
Day is nearly gone, I must carry on with this wasted love
[Interlude - Main Riff] x2 [Verse 2 - Play chords the same as Verse 1, except where noted differently]
           Am            Dm
Careless love

                                      Am  Dm
Can't get these words straight in my head

                    Am        Dm
You make me feel so powerless
[Chorus]
                   Dm                  F
I'm crying out for more, just a little more

                 Am                       G  (Gsus4 G)
Tied down on the floor like a prisoner of war

Dm                    F
Oh, I've been down so long

              Am                 G            Dm
Day is nearly gone, I must carry on with this wasted love
[Solo - continue Dm F Am G progression throughout]
