Love this song, but couldnt find the chords anywhere!!
Hope I did it justice, hope you all find it helpful.
Its pretty easy. This is my first tab so feel free to send me corrections and comments! XX

The strumming pattern I use is "Down,down,up,down,up,down,up"
No Capo and normal tuning.

Verse 1
                        AmThrought (x02210@1)the eyes of an innocent child

                  AmThe (x02210@1)shame and the guilt of disgrace

                     AmWho (x02210@1)escaped when the verdict was clear

   Fmaj7 (1x3210@1)      CAnd (x32010@1)oh you can find them there
Dm (xx0231@1)                    GSlaving (320003@1)each day in the heat and the steam
  Fmaj7 (1x3210@1)    CAnd (x32010@1)oh every bloody stain
        Dm (xx0231@1)

                  AmThey (x02210@1)said she had broken the rules
                   Fmaj7She (1x3210@1)swore that the priest
 
from the school...
               DmIf (xx0231@1)only they'd asked why she cried

And it's hard to believe
          C (x32010@1)                GThat (320003@1)this happened at all
