Hi there,
The whole Song is basically one pattern that loops, I´m not sure if it´s 100% accurate
but in my Opinion it sounds damn good. Have Fun and support Will if able :)
No Capo

After each "Until the Grass gets greener on our side" and as an Intro Will picks a Riff,
he uses some Hammer-Ons and picking skills, but I think this is the basic pattern:

I took the Lyrics from a Comment (Salvatore Pisciotta) on Youtube, not sure about
every Line but most of it should be right:
Am C* C F
For twenty winters I was cold,
Am C* C F
and on my heart there settled snow.
Am C* C F
The darkest places I would roam,
Am C* F C
looking for a medicine for my soul.
Am C* C F
My friends and I would chase the stars,
Am C* C F
and from those battles we're still scarred.
Am C* C F
We'd feed ourselves from the tombs
Am C* F C
and the dungeons 'neath the city loom.
Am C* C F
And I'd often pray as I roamed the street
Am C* C F
that an angel might fall at my feet,
Am C* C F
that every time the morning came,
Am C* F C
a blanket of ice lay on my brain.
Am C* C F
As the city burned in the rebel scream,
Am C* C F
from my attic window I could dream,
Am C* C F
and I told myself to give it time,
Am C* F C
'til the grass gets greener on our side
Am C* C F
In early spring when the lambs are still blind,
Am C* C F
I walked across this land of mine,
Am C* C F
and the wheel as wild as a foreign land,
Am C* F C
I took my first steps as a man.
Am C* C F
In a sleepy town, I stopped to rest
Am C* C F
where the winds hit heavy along the cliffs.
Am C* C F
That's where I saw her standing there
Am C* F C
with big brown eyes and long brown hair;
Am C* C F
Where she looked at me with a face so kind,
Am C* C F
like I'd known her since the beginning of time.
Am C* C F
And we fell into another tense,
Am C* F C
where the machines of war don't make no sense;
Am C* C F
where the money's as empty as the barrel of a gun;
Am C* C F
where the winter never seemed to come.
Am C* C F
Well I don't need money when I've got your eyes,
Am C* C F
'til the grass gets greener on our side.
Am C* C F
Well I'd build you a house by the sea
Am C* C F
with a blue and white door and an apple tree,
Am C* C F
and from there we'll see the summer's by,
Am C* F C
taking or leaving the world outside;
Am C* C F
as them politicians come and go,
Am C* C F
and they'll build their empires and their roads.
Am C* C F
We'll hide behind the rolling hills,
Am C* F C
and they'll hide behind their dollar bills,
Am C* C F
and they'll claim that they are law,
Am C* C F
and all they've ever had's them cannon balls,
Am C* C F
which they fire through the setting sun.
Am C* F C
The sun doesn't care what they have done.
Am C* C F
We'll bury the ground beneath our feet,
Am C* C F
for our blue and white door and our apple tree,
Am C* C F
and I'll take care of your worried mind
Am C* F C
until the grass gets greener on our side
Am C* C F
And if our grass stays golden brown,
Am C* C F
from the shadows cast upon the ground,
Am C* C F
buy me a brush and a tin of green dye,
Am C* F C
and I'll paint the grass 'neath the Autumn sky.
Am C* C F
And if a stranger rests between our hearts,
Am C* C F
if death should ever do us part,
Am C* C F
and our molecules turn into dust,
Am C* F C
we'll travel through this universe,
Am C* C F
and in a thousand trillion years,
Am C* C F
on a fire of planet through the stratosphere,
Am C* C F
where you and I will be together again,
Am C* F C
because love doesn't care about time and space.
Am C* C F
But instead of humans, we will be
Am C* C F
two little rocks on a windswept beach,
Am C* C F
and we'll sit there for the rest of time
Am C* F C
'til the grass gets greener on our side.
