This song is in capo 4, but this song is sung by Allison, whose voice is suuuper low.
(she is a contralto)
So if you're a soprano, like me, it's good to up it to capo 6 or 7.
It's one of my favourites off the album. It's so beautiful and haunting. Enjoy :D

Capo 4

Intro: Am, Em, Dm, E MajorE

A minorAm                E minorEm
He was moving towards me like a deadly hurricane
     DmDm             E MajorE
Well the eye was on the sparrow but I was in the rain
A minorAm                E minorEm
 Rolled into town and blew his smoke into my eyes
       DmDm          E MajorE
Well it was only for a moment but I was hypnotized

A minorAm    E minorEm   DmDm          E MajorE
Why can’t I know secrets that you’re keeping from me?

A minorAm      E minorEm
Stop, don’t tell me now
        DmDm            E MajorE
Cause there is only one day more and I don’t know how
  A minorAm                   E minorEm
To bring to life the things that meant so much to me before
     DmDm            E MajorE
There is danger in your words that I cannot ignore

A minorAm    E minorEm       DmDm        E MajorE
Why must I conceal the secrets I’ve been keeping from you?

Am, Em, Dm, E MajorE

A minorAm            E minorEm
 Sorry thing it was that fell out of your hands
     DmDm               E MajorE
Then you take me in your arms become the good samaritan
A minorAm                  E minorEm
Time flies by like planes above and worries me to death
     DmDm             E MajorE
Cause I lose you more and more with every breath
