these guys sound a bit like REM used to (when they were still fresh).
i'm pretty sure i got the lyrics right, i got the song off napster :-O
so i did everything by ear...
this is just the rhythm guitar part. easy to pick up by just listening
to the song.
 
of course any suggestions, improvements, whatever, are welcome.

 it's funny how life turns out
              G#m                  F#
 the odds of faith in the face of doubt

whose yearbook beauty never fades
B                    E
sits and watches the sea fold in
B                E
and wonders what might have been
             F#            G#m
if she could ever have her chance

Perfect! IMO, This sounds more accurate when tuned down half a step. So E becomes F, F# becomes G, B becomes C, G#m becomes Am. More open chords.
