I've played this several times and it matches perfectly with the song or at least with
the notes the contrabass plays.
On the guitar it may sound a bit better when tuned, but these chords are the original ones.
[Intro]
Em7
G# E B F#
[Verse]
G#
I could drag you from the ocean,
E
I could pull you from the fire
B
And when you're standing in the shadows
F#
I could open up the sky
G#
And I could give you my devotion
E
Until the end of time
B
And you will never be forgotten
F#
With me by your side
[Pre-Chorus]
G# E
And I don't need this life
B F#
I just need...
[Verse]
G#
I've got nothing left to live for
E
Got no reason yet to die
B
But when I'm standing in the gallows
F#
I'll be staring at the sky
G#
Because no matter where they take me
E
In death I will survive
B
And I will never be forgotten
F#
With you by my side
[Pre-Chorus]
G# E
'Cause I don't need this life
B F#
I just need...
[Chorus]
G# E B F#
Somebody to die for
G# E
Somebody to cry for
B F#
When I'm lonely
G# E B F#
[Verse]
G#
When I'm standing in the fire
E
I will look him in the eye
B
And I will let the devil know that
F#
I was brave enough to die
G#
And there's no hell that he can show me
E
That's deeper than my pride
B
Cause I will never be forgotten
F#
Forever I'll fight
[Pre-Chorus]
G# E
And I don't need this life
B F#
I just need...
[Chorus]
G# E B F#
Somebody to die for
G# E
Somebody to cry for
B F#
When I'm lonely
Bb F# Db G#
Bb F# Db E
G#
And I don't need this life
E B F#
I just need...
G# E B F#
Somebody to die for
G# E
Somebody to cry for
B F#
When I'm lonely
G# E B F# (3x)
G# E B
Don't go gentle into that good night
F#
Rage on against the dying light
