There's another song by Nickelback called How You Remind Me.
You'll find a riff lesson at: http://www.8notes.com/school/riffs/guitar/nickelback.asp
Looks something like this:

D-A-D, G-D-A-D, C-G-C, F-C-G-C

So, pretty much the chords on the original sheet music fro piano to Far Away is:
6
Bmaj7, F#sus, G#m7, E9 (and there's a C#2)

For the chorus, you'll pretty much play:

B, F#5, G#m, E maj7

Enjoy the song and keep playing.
