This is the basic piano riff, which is modified a little throughout the intro.
(i.e. by leaving out one of the chords or adding one in, you'll have to listen
for the little changes)




Verse

C         Bbadd6   Dm
Sleight of        hand
F    Gm  F/A  Bb
Jump  off the end
Bb       Am    C     Bb
Into a clear lake
C   Bbadd6  Dm  
No one    around  
Dm


C      Bbadd6   Dm
Just dragonflies
F    Gm  F/A  Bb
Flying to the side
Bb   Am       C       Bb
No one gets hurt
C    Bbadd6       Dm  
You've done nothing wrong  
Dm

Then an intro between the verses.

A third verse the same as above, then the last two lines of the verse.

C    Bbadd6   Dm
Slide your hand
F    Gm  F/A  Bb
Jump off the end
Bb   Am       C       Bb
The water's clear
C    Bbadd6       Dm  
And innocent  
Dm
Bb   Am       C       Bb
The water's clear
C    Bbadd6       Dm    
Dm
And innocent



Then there's a change at 3:34
