Most chords are played without the 3rd. Basically, a "power chord."
[Intro]
A G F#m
Lost like a little child
A G F#m
Helpless as a baby
A G F#m
Searchin' desperately to find
A G F#m
Someone who could save me
[Chorus]
D G A
Then along came from out of nowhere
D G A
Precious as the light of day
D G A E
You gave me something no one could take away
D
When you took my place
A G F#m
w/guitar riff
A G F#m
w/guitar riff
A G F#m
Chained like a prisoner
A G F#m
From the day I was born
A G F#m
Blamed like a criminal
A G F#m
For the things that I'd done
Here's the cool riff. It's played like this the first time through,
and then simpler variants throughout.

As for the solo, I have figured out the first part. Be sure to hold
the bends while you hit the middle note (usually easiest with the
pinky). For the last couple measures, you're on your own. Sorry, I'm
not that good!
