I figured out the first part of the song, and since I couldn't edit the other 
version I am posting a new one with chords for the full song.

BThere's (x2444x@1)a cat in the window,
F#of (244322@1)the house of my lover
Ewell (022100@1)she sleeps there alone now
F#or (244322@1)perhaps with another

(basically just stick to that chord progression all the way through)
 Fade into the piano chords

If you're playing this on piano, for the A chord add in the B note
right next to the root A, this will help make some of that strange
resonance of the chords he's playing. If you want to do a melody type
riff just use the notes naturally in these chords/scale. It's easy to figure
out the back-and-forth part (try-ey-ey-ey) at the end of verses.

ASo, (x02220@1)you say there are spaces,
EOpen (022100@1)and wide.
ABelieve (x02220@1)me there's days,
ELonger (022100@1)than nights.
A (x02220@1)                         EAnd (022100@1)you will be happy, the minute you try...
DBut (xx0232@1)you don't try.
ENo (022100@1)you don't try.

And you speak of a fever,
That burns you inside.
As you explain to your mother,
How you wanted to die.
So she kisses your fingers,
Says "My Darling but why?
DWhen (xx0232@1)there is so much more...
EThere (022100@1)is so much more..."

Do you know there are spaces,
Open and wide.
Oh believe me, there's days,
Longer than nights.
And you will be happy,
If only you'd try. 
DOh (xx0232@1)won't you try,
E~
Oh won't you try...

The end. Play some wrong notes and let it ring out and not resolve.
