Note: In this song the chords could be 'incorrect' if you sing by
      following the tone of the chords itself. Well, you got to sing
      like Chris because in most parts of the vocals Chris sings as a
      back-up vocal. Which means, the guitar plays low tune & Chris
      sings a high tone. You can find that in the chorus. I tabbed the
      the song using both bass & electric guitar from the song also.

Intro:

Amaj11

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7

F#11

Verse 1:

Bsus4
It could be worse,

           Dadd96
I could be alone,

           C#min                F#11
I could be locked in here on my own,

Bsus4                      Dadd96
Like a stone that suddenly drops,

         C#min  F#11
It never stops, no,

Bsus4
I could be lost,

              Dadd96
Or I Could be saved,

        C#min                F#11
Calling out from beneath the waves,

Bsus4                     Dadd96
Beaten down by this ocean rain,

      C#min
Never again,

      F#11
Never again,

Note: During the "Ohh, ohh, ohh," part in the chorus, Jonny play the
      same as the intro.

Chorus:

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min Eb-9min C#min
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min                  F#11

Verse 2:

Bsus4
It could be worse,

          Dadd96
Bitter or sweet,

            C#min                    F#11
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat,

Bsus4                   Dadd96
Like a light lit upon a beach,

          C#min
Wear your heart on your sleeve,

F#11
Oh,

Bsus4                       Dadd96
You want to stop before you begin,

            C#min                        F#11
You want to sink when you know you could swim,

Bsus4                            Dadd96
You want to stop just before you begin,

      C#min
Never give in,

      F#11
Never give in,

Note: Same as the first chorus.

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min                  F#11
Screaming out from the crests of waves,

Bridge:

        Bsus4
Nothing matters,

       F#11                  Emaj
Except life and the love you make,

        Bsus4
Nothing matters,

       F#11                  Emaj
Except life and the love you make,

        Bsus4
Nothing matters,

       F#11                  Emaj Bsus4
Except life and the love you make,

       F#11                  Emaj
Except life and the love you make,

Chorus:

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min Eb-9min C#min
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min                  F#11
Screaming out from the crests of waves,

Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min Eb-9min C#min
Ohhh, ohhh,   ohhh,

C#min Eb-9min Fmin/maj7

C#min                            F#11
Screaming out from the crests of waves,

Fade:

C#min                    F#11
Where your longing to be saved,

C#min                            F#11
Screaming out from the crests of waves,

C#min                    F#11
Where your longing to be saved,

C#min                            F#11
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.
