Tuning:
It is first tuned to drop d, then half a step down on top of that.
Intro:
The first part is just muted strumming, then it jumps into these three formations.
eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|---9-9-9---9-9---4-4--4-4-4-----9-9-9---9-9---4-4--4-4-4-------------------| x2

Db|---5-5-5---5-5---0-0--0-0-0-----5-5-5---5-5---0-0--0-0-0-------------------|
for the intro play it through twice, then the next two times with lyrics
the strumming here is down/down/up down/up down/down/up-down-up-down
Verse:
eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Db|---5-5-5---5-5---0-0--0-0-0-----5-5-5---5-5---0-0--0-0-0-------------------|
'this ain't goodbye...'
then these appear at the end of every two repetitions

'but i ain't leaving...'
strumming: down/down/up-down-up down/down/up-down-up-down
It then repeats the verse once through
Pre-Chorus pt. 1:
eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|---12---12-12---12-12-12-----12---12--12---11-11-11------9--9-9--9-9-9---- | x2
Ab|---9----9--9----9--9--9------9----9---9----9--9--9-------5--5-5--5-5-5-(x2)|
Db|---9----9--9----9--9--9------7----7---7----7--7--7-------5--5-5--5-5-5---- |
'OOOOOooooooOOOoooOOo...'
this is pretty straight forward. from the original position (9,9,12) just move the index
finger down to
seven, place the middle finger on 5th string ninth fret, and play for three strums.
then drag the pinkie
down one fret for three beats before moving to the five and nine.
strumming: down/down-up/up-down-up down/down-up down/down-up down/down-up/up-down-up(x2)
Pre-Chorus pt. 2:
eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|---9--9--9-9-9--9--9--9-9-9---9--9--9-9-9--9--9--9-9-9---------------------|
Ab|---7--7--7-7-7--7--7--7-7-7---7--7--7-7-7--7--7--7-7-7---------------------|
Db|---6--6--6-6-6--6--6--6-6-6---5--5--5-5-5--5--5--5-5-5---------------------|
'i miss the day...'
on the third time playing the Pre-Chorus, the ending varies. this is what it looks like
immediately after
the (7,9,11) chord, and replaces (5,5,9)
strumming: down/down/up-down-up(x2) down/down/up-down-up(x2)
eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Gb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Db|---6-6--6-6-6--6--6-6---7--7-7---9-9--9-9-9-9---x-x-x-x--------------------|

Db|---2-2--2-2-2--2--2-2---4--4-4---5-5--5-5-5-5---x-x-x-x--------------------|
'and now i know...'
it may be hard stretch fingers to six, so i suggest use a pinkie to reach.
strumming: down/down/up-down-up/down/down-up down/down-up down/down/up-down-up-down
Chorus:
eb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Bb|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Ab|-x-9----9--9----9--9--9------9----9---9----9--9--9-------5--5-5--5-5-5-(x2)|
Db|-x-9----9--9----9--9--9------7----7---7----7--7--7-------5--5-5--5-5-5---- |
'shit you are the one..'
the Chorus is just the same as the pre Chorus, but with muted strumming at the start
strumming: down/down-up/up-down-up down/down-up down/down-up down/down-up/up-down-up(x2)
muted strumming: down/down-up-down-up-down-up
These are all the parts, practically repeated in this order twice more, ending with the Chorus,
then going into something like this:
