There are two riffs, #1 corresponds to Ian's vocals.
#2 corresponds to the "background" (dunno the English word)
You'll have to figure out the rhythm for yourselves, the best source to aid is
imo the 2nd JD Peel Session.
When playing alone, switch from one riff to another (assuming that you are not
capable of playing two guitars simultaneously :)

Lyrics/Chords (from memory, so watch out for mistakes):
EmWhen routine bites hardD DmaDsus4j9D
EmAnd resentment rides highDDmDsus4aj9D
EmAnd we're changing our waysDDmDsus4aj9D
EmLove, Dlove Dsus4will Dtear Dmaj9us Bmapart Aagain
Why is this bedroom so cold?
You turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed?
Am I feeling surprised? in other versions: our respect runs so dry
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear it apart again
You cry out in your sleep
And there's a taste in my mouth
As despiration takes hold
Yet, that somehing's so good
Just can't function no more, when
Love, love will tear us apart again
