         Em         Am        Bm       D       Am(bar)   D(bar)  Bm(bar)

This song is relatively simple. To get the strumming pattern listen to the original track.
There's a bit of an ascending riff played at the beginning of each chorus progression 
from the Am(bar) to the D(bar) that looks like this:

e|--5---(5)--(5)---5--|
B|--5---(5)--(5)---7--|
G|--5---(5)--(5)---7--|
D|--7---(7)--(5)---7--|
A|--7---(5)--(5)---5--|
E|--5----7----8-------|
The notes are played on each successive down strum.



Intro: Em - Am x4

                    Em
(With) every sweet hello
            Bm         D       Am
there's a bitter good bye
                  Em
With every happy song
            Bm               D    Am
there's the one to make you cry
                     Em
With every traveled road
            Bm             D      Am
there's a curse that wont die
                           Em
I know you're not the only one
            Bm             D(bar)         Am(bar)
you're the only one with a knife

Still you sing "here's one
                     D(bar)
here's one for the valley
                     Bm(bar)
here's one for your family"
                     Am(bar)
there's never one for me

Still you sing "here's one
                   D(bar)
here's one for the tree
                     Bm(bar)
where your heart is buried"
                     Am(bar)
there's never one for me
                      Em    Bm    D      Am
there's never one for me

                Em
Longing, the alone
        Bm             D       Am
with a fall from a height
                         Em
And now you've come and gone
          Bm              D      Am
must the whole of europe die
                          Em
We know that you inherit light
        Bm             D         Am
but for who does it shine
                              Em
Oh 'cause now I've lost the right
      Bm         D(bar)      Am(bar)
to consider you mine


Still you sing "here's one
                     D(bar)
here's one for the valley
                     Bm(bar)
here's one for your family"
                      Am(bar)
there's never one for me

and here I'm left to sing
                      D(bar)
oh you kissed so damn easy
                        Bm(bar)
did you show it just to tease me
                 Am(bar)
the sweetest treachery
                           D(bar)
there's never one for me
                         Bm(bar)      Am(bar)
oh, there's never one for me
                           D(bar)
there's never one for me
                            Bm(bar)    Am(bar)   Em
there's never, never one for me
