I think this is the first attempt to show how to play ten...
________________________________
Standard Tuning
 
for the intro, play something like this
 
e-----------------|
B-----------------|
G----2------------|
D----2------------|  over and over
A-----------------|
E-----------------|
 
when the words come in we start playing these three chords for the verse
 
   A   E/G# D/F#
e--0---0----2-------|
B--2---0----3-------|
G--2---1----2-------|
D--2---2----0-------|  these chords are picked, not strummed.
A--0---2------------|  always hit the bass note first
E------4----2-------|
 
Verse One:
A         E/G#            D/F#
We left behind the busy crowd.
A     E/G#           D/F#
So it seems we slow down.
A              E/G#                D/F#
Meet me with a way out through the lies.
A              E/G#           D/F#
Nowhere, going nowhere in the fake yellow light.
 
Chorus:
F#m   E  A
Blame no one. X2
 
Verse Two:
 
A            E/G#      D/F#
The feelings change so fast.
A      E/G#          D/F#
Safety scares them away.
        A               E/G#        D/F#
I can't bring myself to say it's my own advice I need.
A                E/G#             D/F#
Nowhere and then nowhere.  Living trapped inside the chase.
 
Chorus Two:
F#m   E  A
Blame no one. X4
 
Bridge:
D,  E,  F#m
 
D                   E              F#m
Our weakness is the same.  We need poison sometimes. X2
   D            E          A
So take another drink with me.
 
Chorus Three:
F#m   E  A
Blame no one. X4
 
Outro:
F#m, E, A played very high on the piano...
