This song is currently only known as Untitled 04 to everyone as far as I know.
If someone gets a title for it, let me know.
This song is a part of the (what is believed to be) Fight Off Your Demons 2006
album. This song is part of the demos.
Anyway
Standard Tuning:
Chords used:

Note: I play acoustically primarily, and this sounds great on an acoustic.
You can, however, use the power chord versions of the chords above if you're
playing electric and it should sound just fine.
Note2: Beginning doesn't actually have a guitar going, it is a synthesizer,
but if you play the following chords it sounds good, if you're doing this
without a synthesizer.
Intro:
A E D F#m (sounds best palm muted for effect)
A E
I, I am feeling like a veteran
D F#m
Uncompensated for the blood I've left to pool on foreign grounds.
A E
And I, sometimes reach to rub at aching legs
D
But they've been dust for over a decade.
F#m
And you're the limb that I've lost but somehow I still feel you.
Chorus:
A E
Until I awake, We just hope that you made it.
D F#m
We just hope that you're celebrating with people you miss.
A
And burning like a beacon.
E
Guiding this ship over this hellish heel.
D F#m
I'm happy to admit that maybe I am a little depressed.
A
'Cause I'm missing you to death.
(back to palm muting)
A E
But now, it's only records of my memory."
D D
Some thing you gave posthumously - the details all dragged out.
A E
To think, of all the paintings we would be without.
D F#m
If Van Gogh had gone and died face down from loss of blood the night he went and hacked his ear off.
Chorus: (x2)
A E
Until I awake, We just hope that you made it.
D F#m
We just hope that you're celebrating with people you miss.
A
And burning like a beacon.
E
Guiding this ship over this hellish heel.
D F#m
I'm happy to admit that maybe I am a little depressed.
A
'Cause I'm missing you to death.
Between the chorus and the alternate chorus it sounds like he is playing around with:
A: |-------| Am: |-------| ?: |-------|
|---2---| |---1---| |---0---|
|---2---| |---2---| |---2---|
|---2---| |---2---| |---2---|
|-------| |-------| |-------|
|-------| |-------| |-------|
Before going into the alternate chorus, he rings out A.
Alternate Chorus:
A(ringing out) E
Until I awake, We just hope that you made it.
D F#m
We just hope you're decorated as the day that you left.
A
And burning like a beacon.
E
Guiding this ship over this hellish heel.
D F#m
I'm happy to admit that maybe I am a little depressed.
A
'Cause I'm missing you to death.
