I saw that there was only the chords on here so I thought I'd tab out more 
of the intricate stuff and the main riff.
I'm not convinced its all 100% to the record but its pretty close and the 
fingerpicking parts can be played any way really I just find this way sounds good.

Verse 1 (same as intro):
=======
           Em            A5/E G5/D Dadd11 
There are too many people in this world
            C              Em    A5/E G5/D Dadd11   C
Trying to shout their names
        Em                A5/E  G5/D  Dadd11
How am I supposed to know where to run?
            C                 Em    A5/E G5/D Dadd11   C
But I don't know who's to blame
   Em             A5/E G5/D Dadd11  C    Em    A5/E G5/D Dadd11   C
And I give people something along the way
      Em           A5/E G5/D Dadd11     C         Em    A5/E G5/D Dadd11   C
Is it OK to be afraid of love if you don't understand it?

Chorus:
=======
         Em(1)         C(1)      G(1)
And the nights are so long without you
        Eb(no5)
And the days speed up,
   Em(2)    C(2)      G(2)
My god I'll never let go of you now
      Gmaj9                    Cadd9
Cause some things are not worth changing
   Em(1)               C(1)       G(1)
My heart swells to the size of an orchid
   Eb(no5)              Em(2)      C(2)
It takes the rest of my heart with it
       G(2)
Going down down down...
    Gmaj9             Cadd9
But I'm never going back home

========
           Em                   Dadd11     C         Em      Dadd11   C
We've sent people into space without even really knowing
          Em        Dadd11 C     Em     Dadd11   C
If there ever gonna come   back down
              Em            Dadd11 C
And there are people asking
               Em     Dadd11  C
Just where I am,
      Em                 Dadd11            C                   Em   Dadd11 C
Is it ok to be afraid of hope if you don't know how to keep it?

Chorus:
=======
         Em(1)         C(1)      G(1)
And the nights are so long without you
        Eb(no5)
And the days speed up,
   Em(2)     C(2)   G(2)
My god I just can't lose you now
    Dsus2                Cadd9
But things are about to change
   Em(1)[STOP]                       G(1)
My heart swells to the size of an orchid
   Eb(no5)              Em(2)      C(2)
It takes the rest of my heart with it
       G(2)
Going down down down...

But I'm neverrrrrrr going back home

Maybe we could find a place for each other now...
