I found that the other tabs didn't have the right sound for the first chord, so along with a video of Jake playing the song and those tabs I have transposed it to sound closer to the actual song.

Intro D / G (Hammer on the A string)
D
Well I see you standing there and your eyes are unaware that G I've been staring at them all night wishing the brain behind them cared about Em the way you make me feel or how your smile makes me nervous or A how the fact how you exist makes me feel like I have a purpose
D I'm sick of lying in your bed while we're both laying down you say G you say want me for a friend I hope you know I hate that sound Em but I will bite my tongue because hate when your pissed off but you should AG know that I need your touch like falling rain on thirsty crops but…
AD5C#BmG Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard AD5C#BmG The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart AD5C#BmG And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more A So why won't you love me?
D Well I hate your cigarettes and the men that you go see because G one is killing you while the other is killing me but Em I know you'll stay stubborn cause you'll know I'll stay alone cause A we both know inside your grasp is the only place I feel at home
D Now I sit with my guitar write you one more stupid song G I hate the way you make me feel like I'm doing something wrong Em but you'll just have to deal with all the things that I have mentioned and AG I'll hope this song is golden like the point of my intentions but…
AD5C#BmG Damn you stupid girl why won't you drop your guard AD5C#BmG The space between our lips is bound to break my ever aching heart AD5C#BmG And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more A So why won't you love me?
DG
D But now the beat is done and there is nothing left to say pray to the G god you don't believe in that you'll love me some day Em so when the years go by and you forget how much I cared AG put in this song and sing along so your heart will be aware
AD5C#BmG It's like giving up on everything that you believe AD5C#BmG To put your trust in a girl that stole your heart right off your sleeve AD5C#BmG And I am sure that you will never find a man that is ever gonna love you more AD But you just wont love me
