CAPO 2, standard tuning

rich-uk's version is already great. I just play this version because
1) I hate the B chord and have to practice it yet (I'm a beginner :-)
2) Playing the G and A chords as barre saves you switching the shapes too often, 
especially in the prechorus

Intro:

D (xx0232@1)                 D (xx0232@1)       D (xx0232@1)                      D (xx0232@1)               A (x02220@1) It started with a low light,  next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed.
                      Bm (x24432@1)      A (x02220@1)                     A (x02220@1)            DAnd (xx0232@1)then they took my blood type,  they left a strange impression in my head.
                    D (xx0232@1)    D (xx0232@1)                       D (xx0232@1)                 AYou (x02220@1)know that I was hopin',  that I could leave this starcrossed world behind.
                     Bm (x24432@1)A (x02220@1)                    ABut (x02220@1)when they cut me open,  I guess I changed my mind.

Prechorus 1:
        G (320003@1)    A (x02220@1)             Bm (x24432@1)     F#mAnd (244222@1)you know I might have just flown too far

from the floor this time, 'cos they're calling me by my name.
            G (320003@1)                        A (x02220@1)          F#m (244222@1)          BmAnd (x24432@1)they're zipping white light beams, disregarding bombs and satellites.
A (x02220@1)            A (x02220@1)           A (x02220@1)            A (x02220@1) That was the turning point,  that was one lonely night.
