yeah, my first tab, try this one...it can be played by two guitars, one leads, and 
the other is the rythm,
just some tip, try listening for the note changes in the piano 
part on how he changes from chord to chord,that's where you can base your strumming pattern...

C              G
The stars lean down to kiss you,
Am              F
And I lie awake and miss you,
C         G              Am            F
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere.
C                   G
Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly,
Am                 F
But I'll miss your arms around me
C           G                    Dm
I'll send a postcard to you dear, 
             F
Cause I wish you were here.

C           G
I watch the night turn light blue, 
Am                    F
But it's not the same without you, 
C                G              Dm       F
Because it takes two to whisper quietly, 
C                G
The silence isn't so bad, 
Am                     F
Till I look at my hands and feel sad, 
C                G
Cause the spaces between my fingers
Dm                         F 
Are right where yours fit perfectly.
C         G
I'll find repose in new ways, 
Am               F
Though I haven't slept in two days, 
C          G                Dm             F
Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone.
C               G
But drenched in Vanilla twilight, 
Am              F
I'll sit on the front porch all night, 
C             G               Dm           
Waist deep in thought because when I think of you.
F                     F C G
I don't feel so alone.
G                     Dm C F
I don't feel so alone.
G                     Dm C F
I don't feel so alone.
Am           G#/Am      G     F#/G     F      F7
As many times as I blink I'll think of you... tonight.
Em F G x4
I'll think of you tonight.

*KEY CHANGE*
D           A
When violet eyes get brighter,
Bm           G
And heavy wings grow lighter,
D              A            Em         G
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again.
D                   A
And I'll forget the world that I knew,
Bm                  G
But I swear I won't forget you,
D        A                     Em                 G
Oh if my voice could reach back through the past, 
A
I'd whisper in your ear, 
A
Oh darling I wish you were here.

D A Bm G D A Em G x4 until end
