This will not match the album version, it has alternate tuning, but this sounds ok if you play it by itself.
EmThis house is cold and Clonely
EmThis place is just a tComb
EmIt's an old cruel reCminder of the past 
EmThat's what's left of me and Cyou
DI can't sleep in our bEmed no more
DMisery shakes me to thEme bone
DAnd even when I tEmry to get some rest
DI can not sleep aEmlone
[Chorus]
So I. . HGi------dDe from the CReckoning
GHi-----Dde from the Ctruth
Yeah I, HGi------dDe from the Creckoning
G'Til I'm lDyin next to yCou.
EmThese prescription pills will Cget me by
EmAt the bottom of a bottle every Cnight is where I hide
EmI hide from the fCact that your gone
EmAnd after all the yCears I'm all alone
DI'm at the end of my Emrope now
DOn the way to ease the Empain
DWhen I get there I put that EmCold Steel to my head
