Verse:
(fingerpick these chords in different ways to get it to sound right,
 because I can't find a particular pattern)

F
There walked a lonely man
Em
Silent mute the only man
    F
Not knowing how, not knowing why
    Em
Was he the sole survivor
F
Why should he be alive
Em
Breathing still while others died
F
And the only question
        Em
Why was he the sole survivor? [lead riff 1]

Lead riff 1:
E|------------------|
B|------------------|
G|------------------|
D|------------------|
A|------------------|
E|--8-7-5-5---------|

Chorus:  \ = slide down the neck towards the nut
  A        F        G
E|--------------------------------------| (x4)
B|--------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------|
D|-----7\-------3\-------5\-------------|
A|-----7\-------3\-------5\-------------|
E|-5-5-5\---1-1-1\---3-3-3\--0-3--------|
(So basically just hit the bass note twice then strum the
full chord and slide it downwards toward the nut.)

Chorus lyrics:
Sole survivor
Cursed with second sight
Haunted savior
Cried into the night
Sole survivor
Cursed with second sight
Haunted savior
Cried into the night
