Tabs
I was surprised nobody tabbed out this incredible song. The chords are relatively simple,
I included the intro riff at the beginning and I included the keyboard riff for the chorus
at the bottom of the page. Enjoy!

Verse 1:
F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE F#F#
"Huh!"
(F#F#) A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE F#F#
It slipped my mind, and for a time, I felt completely free
(F#F#) A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
Oh what a troubled, silent poor boy, a pawn into a queen
Chorus 1:(riff*)
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
I laugh now, but later's not so easy
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
I've gotta stop, the will is strong but the flesh is weak
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
Guess that's it, I've made my bed and I'm lying in it
Verse 2:
(F#F#) A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE F#F#
I'm still hanging on, bird upon the wires, I fall between the waves
(F#F#) A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE F#F# A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD
I avoid your gaze, pattern out of phase, a pawn into a queen
Chorus 2:
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
I laugh now, but later's not so easy
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
I've gotta stop, the will is strong but the flesh is weak
F#F# G+G D MajorD E MajorE BB
Guess that's it, I've made my bed And I'm lying in it
Outro:
(BB) E MajorE D MajorD G+G BB
But it's eating me uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup
E MajorE D MajorD G+G BB
It's eating me uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup
E MajorE D MajorD G+G BB
It's eating me up, If I could feel all the snakes on my head
E MajorE D MajorD G+G BB
It's eating me up, If I could feel all my snails on my head
E MajorE D MajorD G+G BB
It's eating me up, If I could feel all my snares and my net
(till end)
