Heard this song on SyFy's Haven and couldn't find the chords anywhere so I
tried to transcribe it by ear. This is the closest I can get but it seems right to me. 
All chords are strummed once unless otherwise stated, try playing along to the song to 
get the timing right, and please rate!

Intro: C F Am

Am                   F
What is it, keeps me returning
   C               G
To questions I ask
Am                      F
My paper heart has been burning
      C                 G
Since you threw a match

  Am                      F
I can't quit a habit like you dear
   C                 G
As cold, as they say
Am                      F
Something about how you live here
        C            G
I wanna live that way

      C
But I don't wanna take something
     F
That never was mine
   Am
Or fill in blank spaces
     G
With more dotted lines
    C
One thing I can promise
     F
When all the smoke clears
     Am
Just look in this window
    Em     Em   F  F
And you'll find me here

Am     F     C    G     x2
then   F     Am

C       F       Am      G
dadumda dadumda dadumda dadumda
C       F       Am      C
dadumda dadumda dadumda

  C
I never was someone
    F
Who knew what to say
  Am
I sank to the bottom
      G
While you rode the waves
    C
Why couldn't you teach me
   F
If only you knew
      Em                    F   <-- multiple strokes
How I longed for those words
      Em                    F   <-- multiple strokes
How I longed for those words

C       F       Am      G      x2
dadumda dadumda dadumda dadumda

(advisable to use multiple strums for last verse)
      C
But I don't wanna take something
     F
That never was mine
   Am
Or fill in blank spaces
     G
With more dotted lines
    C
One thing I can promise
     F
When all the smoke clears
     Am
Just look in this window
    Em     Em   F  F
And you'll find me here
