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:

Cmaj
It could be worse,

           Fmaj
I could be alone,

           Amin                 Gmaj
I could be locked in here on my own,

Cmaj                       Fmaj
Like a stone that suddenly drops,

         D7     Gmaj
It never stops, no,

Cmaj
I could be lost,

              Fmaj
Or I Could be saved,

        Amin                 Gmaj
Calling out from beneath the waves,

Cmaj                      Fmaj
Beaten down by this ocean rain,

      D7
Never again,

      Gmaj
Never again,

It could be worse,

          Fmaj
Bitter or sweet,

            Amin                     Gmaj
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat,

Cmaj                    Fmaj
Like a light lit upon a beach,

          Amin
Wear your heart on your sleeve,

Gmaj
Oh,

Cmaj                        Fmaj
You want to stop before you begin,

            Amin                         Gmaj
You want to sink when you know you could swim,

Cmaj                             Fmaj
You want to stop just before you begin,

      D7
Never give in,

Where your longing to be saved,

Amin                             Dmin
Screaming out from the crests of waves,

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.
