Hey guys,
This is my first tab that i made, but i'm pretty sure this is the right one!
I'm not saying that the other tabs are wrong, they did a good job, but some chords were 
a little bit off,
so here is my version!
Standard tuning.
The D chord is the only chord that has a change in it displayed here:
  e|----------2-----2---------|
  b|----------3-----3---------|
  g|----------2-----2---------|
  d|-------0----- 4-----------|
  a|--------------------------|
  e|--------------------------|
Other chords like G and A are easier to grab it in the 3rd and 5th fred. Its easier that way.
So lets move on to the whole song!
[Verse]
Sun rDays come down as seen when they hBmit the ground,
Children spinnGing around till they fall Adown down down.
I wDait for you: it's been two hoBmurs now,
You're still somewhGere in town,
Your dinners gAetting cold.
I rDest my case you are alwaBmys this late,
And you know how mGuch I hate waiting arAound 'round 'round,G#  
[Chorus]
GBitter heart, bitter Aheart tries to keep it aG#ll insGide,
Bitter heart, bitter heAart shadows will help you tG#ry to hiGde,
Bitter heart, my bitter heAart is gettin' just a little G#fragiGle,
Bitter heart, bitter hAeart of mine.
[Verse 2]
And then you come
and tell me the same reason
as you did yesterday,
So tell me whats her name?
Doo doo da dum,
doo doo da dum,
doo doo doo doo doo doo da da dum dum,
da da da da dum,
da da da da dum,
da da da da dum.
[Chorus]
Then:
    (stay in G)                      A  D~       D*~
Bitter heart, bitter heart of mine, of mine, of mine,
   G~        A~        D~
of mine, of mine, of mine.
       [D*]

Bitter heart, bitter heart of mine.
