Keep this fingerpicking pattern for the whole song, but change it to these chords (thanks to Tsg9) :
VERSE 1 :
C Em
Your mouth is a revolver firing bullets in the sky.
C Em
Your love is like a soldier, loyal till you die.
F Am
And I've been looking at the stars for a long, long time.
C
I've been putting out fires all my life.
G
Everybody wants a flame, but they don't want to get burnt.
C
And today is our turn.
