This rhythm was quite difficult to get the hang of right away but it doesn?t make that much difference anyway.  If you can?t get it exact, just play what ever you feel most comfortable with.  I worked this out according to the acoustic version which i actually thinks sound a lot better.  If you haven?t heard it, i recommend you do- it will also help to get the feel for the song.
Ok, so here are the chords...

Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
                     Bm                    C

VERSUS
Cadd9                     G
How many days in a year
       Cadd9                              D
She woke up with hope but she only found fear
       Cadd9       G
And i can be so insincere
Cadd9                      Dsus
Making the promises never for real
Bm                			 Cadd9
As long as she stands there waiting
G                                 Cadd9
wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
                            G                        Cadd9                      Dsus
How many days disappear when she looks in the mirror so how do you

choose
PRE-CHORUS
Em7								   D
Your clothes never wear as well the next day and your hair never falls in

quite the same way
	Cadd9					     C~
But you never seem to run out of things to say

CHORUS
( Same structure as before)
This is the story of a girl

Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
And while she looked so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her
when she smiles...

How many lovers would stay
Just to put up with this everyday and all day
How did we wind up this way
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
As long as stand there waiting
Wearing the clothes of the soles that we choose
How do we get there today
When we?re walking to far for the price of our shoes

PRE CHORUS
Your clothes never wear as well the next day
And you hair never falls in quite the same way
But you never seem to run out of things to say

CHORUS

ENDiNG ( Same chords as chorus)
This is the story of a girl
The pretty face she hid from the world
And while she looks so sad and lonely there i absolutely love when she smiles, when she smiles...
