To capture the piano sound, you'll want to use a couple of chord variations during the intro and verses:
For the B minor, shift between Bsus4 and Bm:

    Bsus4   Bm
E|--2-------2-----|
B|--2-------3-----| - middle finger
G|--4-------4-----|
D|--4-------4-----|
A|--2-------2-----|
E|--0-------0-----|
For the G, shift between G(#11) and G (or you can play the G variation as 320003 because that G(#11)
is a
 mongrel to get your fingers around!)

    Gadd#11 G
E|--3-------3-----|
B|--2-------3-----| - ring finger
G|--0-------0-----|
D|--0-------0-----|
A|--2-------2-----|
E|--3-------3-----|
For the D, shift between Dsus2 and D:

    Dsus2   D
E|--0-------2-----| - middle finger
B|--3-------3-----|
G|--2-------2-----|
D|--0-------0-----|
A|----------------|
E|----------------|
For the A, shift between Asus2 and A:

    Asus2   A
E|--0-------0-----|
B|--0-------2-----| - ring finger
G|--2-------2-----|
D|--2-------2-----|
A|--0-------0-----|
E|----------------|
The Em in the pre-chorus sounds better with a G on the high E:

    Em*
E|--3----|
B|--0----|
G|--0----|
D|--2----|
A|--2----|
E|--0----|
For the sake of brevity and readability, I've marked the chord variations with just an * anywhere I
needed to
save space, and a '/' denotes a strum for the previous chord..

Intro:
Bm G D
Bm G D A

Intro lead melody:
    Bm      G       D                   Bm      G       D       A
E|-----------------------------------|-----------------------------|
B|----3---2---3----------------------|----3---2---3----------------|
G|----------------2------------------|----------------2-2-------2--|
D|--------------0-----4---4---4---2--|------------------0-5-4-2-2--|
A|--2---2-----------5---5---5---4----|--2---2-----------0-------0--|
E|----------3------------------------|----------3---3--------------|

Verse 1:
Bsus4 Bm /                         G* G /            Dsus2 D /  Asus2 A /
        Put your lighter in the air and lead me back home, whoa
Bsus4 Bm /                           G* G G* G               Dsus2 D /  Asus2 A /
        When it's all said and done       I'll follow the echoes
  Bsus4 Bm Bsus4 Bm         G* G /              Dsus2 D / Dsus2    Asus2 A /
I hear you night after night calling out my name,         mmmhmmm
Bsus4 Bm Bsus4 Bm         G* G /                Dsus2 D / Dsus2    Asus2 A /
And I find myself               running to meet                 you
Em* / / / /   /     Bm
I didn't want to escape
         Bm     Bmadd4  Bm  Asus2 (note below)
From the bricks that    I   laid down

Arpgeggios for the Asus2 leading into the chorus:
E|---------------|---------------|

E|---------------|---------------|

Bm            /        /       G         /             /

You are the only one
Bm            /         /       G            /           /
The only one that knows me, And in the dark you show me
A            Bm        G (note below)
   Yeah it’s perfectly reckless
A         Bm         G (note below)
Damn, you leave me defenseless
A
      So break in

Verse 2:
Bsus4 Bm /                   G* G /                 Dsus2 D /  Asus2 A /

Bsus4 Bm Bsus4 Bm                  G* G G* G        Dsus2 D /            Asus2 A /
         Then you pick up the piec-   es, And you           make me whole
Em* / / / /   /     Bm
I didn't want to escape
         Bm     Bmadd4  Bm  Asus2
From the bricks that    I   laid down

Chorus:
D   /  /    A  /     /
You are the only one
Bm            /        /       G         /             /
The only one that sees me, Trusts me and believes me

You are the only one
Bm            /         /       G            /           /

'til there is nothing left
                Dsus4 D     Dsus2 D  G
Until it’s just your  voice in    my   head
                     Bm
When the lights come on
                    F#m7
And you see me as I am
       /     D/F# A    A7sus4
You’re still in-  side me

Chorus:
D   /  /    A  /     /
You are the only one
Bm            /        /       G         /             /
