Tuning: standard (eBGDAE)
Here is my version of it.. It's quite a simple song and its good
Enjoy!=)
There are two guitars as I count them:
Gtr 1 Lead guitar-distorted
Gtr 2 Rythm guitar-distorted (to get the hollow sound, use your amplifier to
decrease the bass.
So here it goes:

|--------------------------------------------------
|--------------------------------------------------
|---------9---------------9------------------------

|--------------------------------------------------
Whilst gtr 1 plays this (hold the tone until the word down in the lyriks) :
Let ring <---------------------------------------------------->
B|--- 10------------------------------------------------------------------|
All my life I've been fall, fall, falling up heart been tumbling down
quick fast far from the stop I never learn just get up and go on until
Im just knocked out off about feeeee.
Chorus
Here is the lyriks:
But it's not the fall that hurts
It's when you hit the ground
Co's its not the fall that hurts
It's when you hit the ground
The guitars play:

Then gtr 2 plays this short slide riff:

Lyriks: fall fall fall fall fall fall falling apart... x2
A clean guitar plays something in the bacground here, I think it's a B chord
listen to the song to hear how it's played
Then after two times the main riff comes in and is played twice:
Gtr 2
(e|----------------------------------------------------------|
(B|----------------------------------------------------------|
(G|---------------9--9---7--7-------------------7--7---5--5--|
(D|--9----9--9----9--9---7--7----7--7---7--7----7--7---5--5--|

(A|--------------------------------11--7---------------------|
(E|----------------------------------------------------------|
Then the chorus lyriks is added too:
Gtr 1 and 2 keeps playing same as above and the choir keeps singing as well.
But it's not the fall that hurts
It's when you hit the ground
Co's its not the fall that hurts
It's when you hit the ground
Play this twice and then the outro:
Gtr 1 Fade away
