This is played over the first verse and after the first chorus (in the last part 
of the 2nd verse too - listen to the song)
I'll write in the chords as well.

*SO. in the chorus, where it says Asus, you can substitute it for Am. Whichever 
you like best. Have fun.

[Verse 1]
Am                                          G       D/F#
 In the party love, some man's playing Hallelujah...Hallelujah...
Am                                                  G              D/F#
 In the corner love, all night girls drink wine and try, to sing along...
Am                                                       G         D/F#
 I made a mess of things, the stops and inbetweens, they weigh me down...
Am                                          G    D/F#  
 You got someone new, singing you your songs now...

[Chorus]
G    Asus  C9  G            D/F#  C9      
 Sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse.
G     Asus     C9  G        D/F#                 C9
 I'd sooner surrender, and our love would count for everything...

[Verse 2]
Am                                               G        D/F# 
 In my sweetest dreams it's just you and me, and we break wide.
Am                                  
 I wake reminded love, of how I just gave up,
     G                 D/F#          
 and how you moved on, how you moved on...
     Am
 I'm waiting for something, I've waited for now, 
         G       D/F#          Am
 for the rolling canyons of love.
                                G             D/F#
 And I'm tongue tied and you're coming alive, coming alive...

[Chorus]

G    Asus  C9  G           D/F#  C9      
 Sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse.
G     Asus     C9  G        D/F#                 C9
 I'd sooner surrender, and our love would count for everything...


[Bridge]
Am                      G        D/F#               Am
 I'm sorry that you're gone, so sorry that you've gone
Am                      G     D/F#
 I'm sorry that you've gone, ohhh.
Am                          G        D/F#             Am      C9
 And I'm sorry that you've gone, so sorry that you've gone away...
                       Am
 You're a little bit right..
C9                     Am           C9
 More than a little bit right, with my arms around you...

[Chorus]

G    Asus  C9  G            D/F#  C9      
 Sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse.
G      Asus    C9  G        D/F#                 C9
 I'd sooner surrender, and our love would count for everything...
G      Asus    C9  G            D/F#  C9    
 I'd sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse, I know,
G      Asus    C9  G        D/F#                 C9
 I'd sooner surrender, and our love would count for everything...
G        D/F#                 C9
 And our love would count for everything...
G      D/F#               C9 
 And I miss when you were everything...
