This is the way that I've seen John play it live every time I've seen them.

Intro

*C#m C#sus2 A (modified)*  F#  (x2)
D  E
A
During the intro, the chords surrounded by *'s are an optional way to simulate the piano part in the song.
The main chord is C#m and the other two are played only once in fast succession. the strum pattern is
down, down up down up down, down, down with the last two down strums being the second two chords.
If you listen for the piano part in the song it's clear. When I play this song I replace all of the
fills with this lick, because frankly, I think it sounds AMAZING.

Verse

A                    E
I hope that our few remaining friends
D                    A
Give up on trying to save us
  A                      E
I hope we come up with a failsafe plot
        D                        A
To piss off the dumb few that forgave us
A                    E
I hope the fences we mended
D                           E
Fall down beneath their own weight
      A                        F#m
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
  D                     E
I hope it's already too late
    A                                          F#m
And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
Someday burns down
    D
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away
                 E                  D
And I never come back to this town again

Chorus

      E             A
In my life I hope I lie
         F#m
And tell everyone you were a good wife
               A
And I hope you die
          E         A
I hope we both die
C#m  F#  (x2)
D  E
A

Verse

A                   E
I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow
D                        A
I hope it bleeds all day long
    A                          E
Our friends say it's darkest before the sun rises
     D                             A
Well we're pretty sure they're all wrong
A                       E
I hope it stays dark forever
D                      E
I hope the worst isn't over
    A                       F#m
And I hope you blink before I do
  D                E
I hope I never get sober
      A
And I hope when you think of me years down the line
    F#m
You can't find one good thing to say
      D
And I hope that if I found the strength to walk out
                              E
You'd stay the hell out of my way

Chorus

     D                            E
I am drowning there is no sign of land
                    A
You are coming down with me
F#m
hand in unlovable hand
               A
And I hope you die
          E        A
I hope we both die
