There isn't as much guitar in the song as I have here. The intro/verse tab
is a good way to play within the song as it brings out similarities to the
other instrument parts within the song. It is finger picked in an even
fashion and, with the key it is in, conveys the sad feel of the song

intro / verse - Bbm  Cm  Db  Ebsus2

Here at my feet the metal remains
Of hopes that dies in the air
Here at my feet salt water washes over despair
Was it for fear of the future 
Was it for guilt of the past

chorus - Eb Bbm   last time - Eb Db Db/Ab Db

And where are the souls? Oh the sea doesn't know
And where are the souls? Oh the rocks cannot say
And where are the souls? God only knows
How your feeling today

verse

Here in my head I see and eagle that flies into the sun
Here in my head I say a prayer that You'd save the next one
Is there noone to watch over this place
To pray this evil away

bridge Ab

Looking up at cliffs so white
Shadows in this evening light
Looking up at sky so blue
I can only think of You
