These are the exact chords they use for the song. 
Amos sent me some of the chords for their songs and there is a 
video of guitarist Mark explaining this very same song.

I did my best with the placement of the chord changes
with the lyrics.
Place any comments/concerns below.

Enjoy!

Verse 1:
  F          Fsus2         Am    D7/B       C
     Pack it up before the arrow meets your heart
          F        Fsus2     Am    D7/B C
     When I am done you will never ever love again
             F           Am   G
     Or ever love again
          F           Am   G
     Ever love again
  F            Fsus2        Am     D7/B    C
     Clear the table of the embers setting fire
         F                Fsus2         Am    D7/B C
     The house will catch, and you will never ever live again
          F           Am   G
     Ever live again
          F           Am   G
     Ever live again


Chorus:
  Am          C                  F
     Hide yourself from all this consequence
               Am         C             F
     'Cause it seems much greater than defense
  Am          C                  F
     Hide yourself from all this consequence
                 Am        C        F
     'Cause it's seen more love than sense


Post-Chorus:
                Am  F  Am  F
     So forward on
                Am  F  G
     So forward on


Verse 2:
  F         Fsus2          Am      D7/B C
     Pick a path though it shadows over mine
           F          Fsus2        Am     D7/B   C
     These city lights spread like cancer on the skyline
  F             Fsus2             Am     D7/B     C
     Clear your sights of all the habits that are mine
          F            Fsus2     Am    D7/B  C
     When you get tired you will never ever love again
             F           Am   G
     Or ever love again
          F           Am   G
     Ever love again


Chorus:
  Am          C                  F 
     Hide yourself from all this consequence
               Am         C             F
     'Cause it seems much greater than defense
  Am          C                  F
     Hide yourself from all this consequence 
                 Am        C        F
     'Cause it's seen more love than sense
              G
     So carry on...


Ending:
     Am    F           C
     I was meant to go alone
        Am    F           C
     If I was meant to go alone
     Am    F           C
     I was meant to go alone
        Am    F           C
     If I was meant to go alone
