Someone had to tab this song!!!
It isn't 100% correct because the timing is strange on this song, 
and so are the chords, but if you just play along to it, it works.  
He adds a F or F# root to the Amaj7 I think.  



A (x02220@1)                   Amaj7He (x02120@1)always gets so mad things you laugh at
Dm (xx0231@1)                            A"Don't (x02220@1)get so worked up," you'd say 
A (x02220@1)                        Amaj7But (x02120@1)on the back deck you admit
      DmThat (xx0231@1)you haven't felt much like laughing lately anyway
E (022100@1)                                   AAnd (x02220@1)so I say, "That could change"


Bm (x24432@1)                                    EI (022100@1)noticed how you waste no time
                A (x02220@1)                 Dm7
Making your way across the room
Bm (x24432@1)                     E (022100@1)                 A (x02220@1)       Amaj7You (x02120@1)leave a wake of tongues still waving after you
Bm (x24432@1)                           EAnd (022100@1)it isn't no coincidence
A (x02220@1)                                  Dm7
Where you finally choose to stand
Bm (x24432@1)                     E (022100@1)             AI (x02220@1)know soon you will be leaving your man

A Amaj7 Dm  A  x2

A (x02220@1)                           Amaj7It's (x02120@1)a sweet smile and then a denial
Dm (xx0231@1)                                 AHey, (x02220@1)you are just trying to be nice
A (x02220@1)                            Amaj7 (x02120@1)      DmBut (xx0231@1)there is a meaning to every fleeting action
                              AYou (x02220@1)unconsciously decide
EThe (022100@1)clocks, they chime
         ANow (x02220@1)it's time


Bm (x24432@1)                        EI (022100@1)know you try and play it cool
         A (x02220@1)                          Dm7
But there are some thoughts you just can't hide
Bm (x24432@1)                  E (022100@1)                 A (x02220@1)     Amaj7Only (x02120@1)in your closest friends do you confide
Bm (x24432@1)                                       EThe (022100@1)way you say you'll be seeing me
A (x02220@1)              Dm7
Oh, like it's so offhand
Bm (x24432@1)                      E (022100@1)           A (x02220@1)I guess soon you will be leaving your man

A  Amaj7  Dm A  x2

Bm (x24432@1)                             EYou (022100@1)stare at me so boldly now
               A (x02220@1)                Dm7
You have no lack of confidence
Bm (x24432@1)                  E (022100@1)            A (x02220@1)        Amaj7It's (x02120@1)just those lessons of subtlety you missed
Bm (x24432@1)                               EI (022100@1)know you dream of saving me
                A (x02220@1)                        Dm7
Like I'm some plane that you could land
Bm (x24432@1)          E (022100@1)           A (x02220@1)                       
But when you fly you'll be leaving your man


Like I said, the timing is weird.  Just play along to it.  
Maybe switch up the chords, watch the video, I don't know.
