[ Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hundred_reasons/oratorio_crd.html ]
Pluck and strum these chords (on a clean tone) for the intro:
| Dsus2[*] | Dsus2 | C5, G5/B | D5/F#, G5 | 

[*] – fill in with Dsus2maj7

Then kick into the verse, which is pretty much the same as the intro, but with fifth chords:

| D5                             | D5 
|    So strap yourself in again  |   and do you find 

                 | Csus2   G5/B*           | D5/F#*  G5* |  
yourself able to | breathe -     unhindered|             |  

| D5                         | D5    
|   we rise to the top again | and they watch as we fall 

      | Csus2  G5/B*            | D5/F#*  G5*
into- | whole-       bottomless-|-

and so on with the rest of the verses...
