Intro:
The beginning of the song has a 'drone' type sound that can be done on guitar. As you
play the E chord mute and pull off at the bridge using the ball your hand. That's the
easiest description I can think of. Bruce Springsteen does it a lot with his acoustic
songs if you want more examples.

Two thousand years gone by and going strong
EB
Well never fear my love it won't be long
EA
You say you've had enough, it seems so wrong
AmE
Now it's suicide, oh my love
And now you know just why I'm here
Now my eyes they see so clear, no fear
EA
Where do we go from here, it's in your head
EB
So many tears we'll cry before we're dead
EA
Remember me my love and what we said
AmE
I will stand by you all night long
And now you know just why I'm here
