This is my first tab so please notify me if I've made some mistakes. It's of
an awesome song by an awesome band that doesn't get enough credit and doesn't
have a lot of tabs out there cause their music is pretty complicated.

If you want to play this on the piano, the intro is just bass notes in the
left hand (first note 2nd A below middle C which I think is A1) with 6ths 
being played in the right hand (so a C#3 and E2 for an A chord and a E3 and
G#2 for a C#m chord and so on). Follow the song for the rhythm and this is 
pretty much the same for verses.

This song is kinda weird cause of the time signature changing every now and 
then so I'll put down how many beats you should play a chord for.

Also, the different bass notes (ie the C/G's and E/G#) and 7th chords can be
ignored and just played as a normal major/minor chord, it just sounds like
the original if you play it as written.

A symptom of
A stumbling towards
A perfect love

If only I was not so terrified

Instrumental 
(this part is weird, the first bit only has the piano playing a B and C# so
its without a chord but the it moves into F#m or F#m9 although the bass note
is a C#, again its only a few notes played by piano and guitar so its hard to
tell)
F#m9/C# x28    C#  x 4

      Dx8 (xx0232@1)              
These doubts that are arising
          F#mx8 (244222@1)They've become so paralyzing
     Ax8 (x02220@1)Am I what she wants
     D7x8 (xx0212@1)Am I what she needs
   Dx8 (xx0232@1)                         Amx2 (x02210@1) Dmx5 (xx0231@1)Or am I just a letdown she can't see
