Grabbed the chords from the first post and tried to tab it out. Of course, this is not the way Chris plays it, but it will do the trick for novice guitar players.

 

Corrections welcome :)

 

Bm		2-2-4-4-3-2
G		3-2-0-0-0-3
D		X-X-0-2-3-2
Em		0-2-2-0-0-0
A		0-0-2-2-2-0


Note: The 'D' chord in the verse is just a quick strum as interlude to the next chord.


VERSE:

Bm			   G
 Smoke is risin' from the houses

Bm                     G
 People buryin' their dead

Bm                          G
 I asked somebody what the time is

Bm                                G    D
 But time doesn't matter to them yet

G                        Bm        D
 People talking without speaking 

G                              Bm   D
 Tryin' to take what they can get

G                  Bm
 I ask you if you remember

Em                   G
 Prospekt how could I forget


PRE-CHORUS:

 D
 Drums!

         Bm
 Here it comes!

 G                           
 Don't you wish your life could be as simple

 (G)
 As a fish swimming round in a barrel

      Em             G
 When you've got the gun

          D
 Oh and I run

         Bm
 Here it comes!

            G                      
 We're just two little figures in a soup bowl

 (G)
 Tryin to get beyond a kind of control

     Em       G
 But I wasn't one


CHORUS:

            A                           G
 Now here I lie on my own in a separate sky

            A                           G
 And here I lie on my own in a separate sky

               A
 I don't wanna die

                G
 On my own here tonight

            A                           G
 But here I lie on my own in a separate sky...
