from now on I write the chords resulting from the bass and guitar part together.
Bass plays G A Bb C, guitar keeps arpeggiating on Gm 3553xx (or 3103xx?).

Gm Am Bb           Cm             Gm Am Bb          Cm
        Countless times I trusted you,    I let you back in
        Gm         Am       Bb             Cm                 Gm Am Bb    Cm
        Knowing... yearning... you know I should have run but I, I stayed

Gm F Cm          Bb     Gm       F
        Maybe I always knew
     Cm             Bb             Gm  F  Cm  Bb      Gm F Cm Bb
        My fragile dreams would be broken for you

Gm Am Bb        Cm           Gm  Am           Bb          Cm
        Today I introduced myself  to my own feelings
     Gm           Am    Bb                 Cm                    Gm Am Bb                 Cm
        In silent agony,  after all these years, they spoke to me...      after all these years

Gm F Cm          Bb     Gm       F
        Maybe I always knew
     Cm             Bb             Gm  F  Cm  Bb      Gm F Eb F
        My fragile dreams would be broken for you

instrumental:  | Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm |
               | Eb | Eb | Eb | Eb |
               | Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm |
               | Eb | Eb | Eb | Eb |

in the instrumental part, "Gm" means to alternate Gm and Gsus4, while
                          "Eb"  ...  ..    ...    Eb ...  Eb6.

Gsus4 is 355533, Eb6 is x65543.

playing the song with a capo on the 3rd fret makes it easier.

the guitar riff is essentially made of two slighly different repeating figures:

|----------------------|
|-----------3-----3----|
|.-5----3-5---3-----3-.| over Gm
|.--------------------.|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|

|----------------------|
|-----------3-----3----|
|.-5----3-5---------3-.| over Eb and Cm
|.------------5-------.|
|----------------------|
|----------------------|

the only relevant variation, played over the F chord:

|----------------------|
|----------------------|
|--5-3-2----5-3-2------|
|--------5--------5-3--|
|----------------------|
