Here's the basic progression in C. I typically capo it for different keys but I think 
in C sounds most like the original. Lovely song though.

Intro: C G Am F

(Progression 1:)
C (x32010@1)                     GIt (320003@1)was a moment for the books
             AmThe (x02210@1)calendar looked
              Fjust (133211@1)like the novels we had only skimmed through.
C (x32010@1)                  G (320003@1)                        AmSo (x02210@1)I circled out the dates that I'll skillfully waste.
    FFor (133211@1)now that's going to have to do.

(Progression 1:)
C (x32010@1)                         G (320003@1)                        AmIt (x02210@1)was the brightest summer day, after we swam in the lake,
         Fthat (133211@1)you told me our luck is gonna end.
C (x32010@1)                G (320003@1)                            AmSo (x02210@1)we better be concerned. We're where the subway turns.
          FWe (133211@1)need a camera and some cash to spend.

(Progression 2:)
Dm (xx0231@1)                G (320003@1)    Am (x02210@1)                 CAnd (x32010@1)our picturesque blame; we'll put it in IKEA-frames.
Dm (xx0231@1)                      GUp (320003@1)on the wall it looks profound,
               Am (x02210@1)                   Fand (133211@1)reminds us Oslo is a small, small town. (Yeah)

(Progression 1:)
So it's night and we dive into a basement that's alive
with stupidity that melts into pairs.
But your good intent was clear when you split and left me here
to regret I left my high horse upstairs.

(Progression 2:)
And with the way I say goodbye
I could have ruined everything.
But I'll be seeing you around
because Oslo is a small, small town.

(Progression 2:)
I'm keeping myself calm
if just for the sake of staying warm.
So with my eyes fixed on the ground
I admitted Oslo is a small, small town. (Yeah)
