Okay this is my first tab but i think its 100% right, or close to it.
I tabbed the acoustic version because i think its sounds much better, but its almost
the same for the regular version.
To get this song to sound perfect play it on a steel string acoustic, but it
still sounds good if you play it on an electric with no distortion.
Also slide between the frets on the A string.

Let ring for the whole bar
LYRICS (as close i can understand them)
This empty room it fills my mind
Freedom it leaves me confined
Every single wall has cracked
But in this life you can't turn back
I don't want to live,
I don't want to live alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
As these words are with my tongue
I question why they're even sung
I have promised but I lied
I don't even know myself inside
I don't want to be,
I don't wanna be here alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
Today and tomorrow have become one
Every single thing has become none
Human nature is a beast
What I've done the most to show I have the least
Please don't leave me here,
please don't leave me here
Don't you leave me alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
