^^^^^^^^^^
 -  -  - 
 -  -  - 


the strumming rhytmn is like this (it variates a bit but that's the main thing):

   v   v    ^ v ^  v   v    ^ v ^
e|-----0----0-0-0------0----0-0-0--|
B|(1)--1----1-1-1-(1)--1----1-1-1--|
G|-2---2----2-2-2--2---2----2-2-2--|
D|-2---2----2-2-2--2---2----2-2-2--|
A|-0---0---(0-0-0)-0---0---(0-0-0)-|
E|---------------------------------|
       >               >

(v is a downstroke, ^ an upstroke and > is an accent)


_______
Verse 1 (0:22) it's the same as the intro :)
^^^^^^^
                       
     Between a man and a woman
                 *
     Life begins again
                    
     Between love and confusion there lies
         
     only pain

to make it sound even better, you can fill in a Dsus4 instead of a plain D, where I made 
*. the acoustic guitar on the track does it.
do it like this:

                
e|-2--2----2-2-2-3--3----3-3-3-|
B|-3--3----3-3-3-3--3----3-3-3-|
G|-2--2----2-2-2-2--2----2-2-2-|
D|-0--0----0-0-0-0--0----0-0-0-|
A|-----------------------------|
E|-----------------------------|

Chorus (0:36)
^^^^^^
        
Take my word,
        
Heal my soul,
         
Shake my pride,
           
Do not let go
            
Give me the sun
              
And the moon above
                    
If the stars should fall
            
Only heaven knows

It's everything or nothing at all

Everything or nothing at all

^^^^^^^

But you're insane

If the stars should fall
            
Only heaven knows
