Hi there! I really like this song and I really like to sing along to it. So, to make it
easy for y'all to sing it, I decided to post the chords for the acoustic version (which
are the same than for the normal version). Anyway, just tune your low E string down to 
do D and that's all. Have fun playing.
PS: when you see a chord with a * in front of it, it just means you should play the
chord following the drop D notation indicated below. For example, D5 is a normal D5 (it's
played like the standard tuning D5 power chord) while D5* is the same power chord played 
in the drop D notation (000xxx).
Tuning: Drop D (DADgbe)
Chords used:
 C(032010)
Dsus4/9 (054030)
 D5(x57700)
 C5(x35500)
Asus4/7 (000200)
F5* (333xxx)
D5* (000xxx)
 Dsus2(000230)
 G5(x10 12 12 00)
 F5(x8 10 10 00)
 C5(10 10 10 xxx)
G5* (555xxx)
During the verse, play this riff:

Verse 1:
Today I woke up and you were gone
The whole day wondering what I did wrong
It's like I'm falling from a mountain top
My heart keeps pounding and it won't stop

I'll never crawl to you

Chorus:
  D5   C5  Asus4/7    C5  F5* D5*
Well don't deny
The hand that feeds you needs you
Oh god I'd die to try to
Finally please you
Pre-Chorus:
   D5      D5   G5   F5  C5*
There goes a piece of me
Will I cease to be
I've never lied to you
Fought bled and died for you
