Play along with it and let me know what you think, thanks.

Phrasing with help from r/user/Fjel and chorus from r/user/anon.

Capo 4th fret


[Intro]
E A F#m7 B7 G#m7 C#m7 Dmaj7 A   X2


[Verse]
E                   A        F#m7                   B7
How's your heart been beating? How's your skin been keeping?
G#m7                  C#m7  Dmaj7               A
How's the dreaming going, since you came back home this time?
    E                   A         F#m7             B7
You left her out there somewhere, told you how you feel, but,
G#m7          C#m7             Dmaj7            A
never really got your chance, to show her what it really means.


[Chorus]
   E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
To love her,
              E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love her,
              E       Amaj7     D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love to love her,
              E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love her.              


[Verse]
E             A       F#m7               B7
Closer to the ending, she's still out pretending,
G#m7              C#m7           Dmaj7          A
Prying eyes won't recognise, the way she feels about him.
E                 A           F#m7           B7
She'll just go on living, the river keeps on rolling.
G#m7            C#m7              Dmaj7            A
Knowing all the time she'll never understand just what it means.


[Chorus]
   E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
To love her,
              E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love her,
              E       Amaj7     D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love to love her,
              E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love her.                      Haaah


Solo - E A F#m7 B7, G#m7 C#m7 Dmaj7 A   X2


[Chorus]
   E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
To love her,
              E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love her,
              E       Amaj7     D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love to love her,
              E          Amaj7  D7  D*  Amaj7
The way you'd love her.              

End on E

The chorus 'riff' seems to go something like this when he plays it acoustic, I can't describe this very 
well, sorry. Have a listen with the song to try figure out what I mean.
