Ok, I couldn't take not having a halfway decent tab for this song, so I created my own. I've been playing a while, but this is my first published tab, so it's just the basics. I created this to play on my acoustic, so I didn't include the cool interlude part simply because I didn't have copy of the song readily available to listen to. Here are the chords(play all 6 strings!):

G#   466544
C#5  446644
F#   244322
Bbm  688666
Fm   133111

Enjoy!

Intro: G#

G#           C#5
what's wrong baby?
           F#                  
don't they treat you like they should? 
                      C#5
did you take them for it
         F#
or every penny that you could? 


Bbm                                        F#
we once walked out on the beach and once i almost touched your 
hand
         C#5
o, how i dreamed to finally say such things 
     G#
then only to pretend

 
G#                 C#m
don't you know i'm thinking? 
        F#
driving 405 past midnight 
           C#m
you know i miss you
          F#
ninth and ash on a tuesday night 


        Bbm
i would write to you from museum mile
F#
toast to you: your whisper, your smile 
C#5
up the stairs at the wheatherford 
  G#
a ghost each place i hide 


G#         C#5
i left you waiting
       F#
at the least could we be friends? 
                  C#5
should have never started
           F#
ain't that the way it always ends? 
      Bbm
on my life i'll try today 
                F#
there's so much i've felt i should say but 
C#                                G#
even if your heart would listen i doubt i could explain 

G#         C#
so here we are now 
         F#
a sip of wine a sip of water 
        C#
someday maybe
      F#
maybe someday we'll be smarter
    Bbm        
i'm sorry that i'm such a mess
  F#
i drank all my money could get,
C#                               G#
took everything that you had and never loved you back 
 

       F#                         G#
if you don't know, why'd you just say so?
          Fm                     F#
would you mean this please if it happens? 
       F#                         G#
if you don't know, why'd you just say so?
          Fm             F#
won't you get your story straight?
       F#                          G#
if you don't know, honey why'd you just say so?
  Fm                        F#
i need this now more than i ever did
F#        
if you don't know, honey, 
G#
then you don't
