Matchbox 20 - Bright Lights

This is one of the greatest songs from the latest album of Matchbox 20. It has all the things a song should have so it never gets boring while listening to it.
Though it might not be 100 % correct I hope I can give u an idea of the song. Would be nice if you could rate it so I improve following tabs that I post here.  

Standard tuning

Verse 1:
She got out of town on a railway New York bound
took all except my name another alien on Broadway

There's some things in this world you just can't change
some things you can't see until it gets too late

Chorus:

    E     D     A    E         E     D     A      Bm     E
|---0-----2-----0----0---------0-----2-----0-------2-----0----------------|

|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world
maybe, maybe, maybe you'll find something
That's enough to keep you but if the bright lights don't receive you
you should turn yourself around and come on home

Verse 2:

I got a hole in me now I got a scar I can talk about
She keeps a picture of me in her apartment in the city

Some things in this world they don't make sense
Some things you don't need until they leave you
and they're things that you miss

Chorus

Bridge: 

C#m       B            A
Let that city take you in
Let that city spit you out
Let that city take you down (here r some chords missing that I haven't 
                             figured out yet)
B              
For god's sake turn around

For lead guitar look at other version posted at mxtabs. It's better than mine though I wasn't wrong with all my chords =P
