I've finally added the missing lyrics in the last verse, thanks to patrickjeanson0.
Chords are now relative to capo; it's probably easier that way.
The real chord names are kept in brackets for quick reference.
Use the 'transpose' button if for some reason you want the real chords within lyrics.

[Intro]
Emadd9     A9     C7     B7
 
 
 
[Verse 1]
    Emadd9                   A9
You will not give in says the soul to the skin
 
     C7                      B7
Now give me those animal thoughts you've been hiding.
 
  Emadd9                A9
Rise from the bed take the heart from the head
 
     C7                   B7
And ask if she really is broke.
 
    Emadd9
You'll find she doesn't speak,
 
A9
She was never broken;
 
C7                     B7
Always asleep, oh, and you thought he'd woken you.
 
 
Emadd9     A9     C7     B7
 
 
 
[Verse 2]
      Emadd9
Don't cheat says the soul
 
          A9
It's just meat on his bones
 
          C7
It smells sweet bet your conscience
 
      B7
Will eat at your inners
 
    Emadd9 A9      C7
I'm calling from my cage
 
B7       Aadd9       G6    F#7  Em      Am   Emaj7sus4
You'll regret that you locked me away.
 
 
Em     Am     Emaj7sus4
 
 
 
[Verse 3]
      Emadd9
Good day says the sun
 
    A9
The morning has come
 
       C7                          B7
Hide away, without moonlight you're pale and undone
 
         Emadd9
You must listen to me,
 
        A9
This is what you are
 
         C7                        B7
It's not you that he'll see if you hold me afar.
 
    Emadd9  A9    C7
You know my dearest friend
 
B7       Aadd9      G6   F#7   Em      Am   Emaj7sus4
You'll be sorry when all of this ends.
 
 
Em      Am   Emaj7sus4
 
 
 
[Bridge 1]
      Em
I had told you
 
                Am  Emaj7sus4
Hold tight to my hands
 
        Em            Am
I speak truth why did you not
 
Emaj7sus4   Em
Hold your ground?
 
                       Am
You let go to run with his soul
 
                 Emaj7sus4
And now that he let go
 
               Em    Em7/G    A9    C7 B7
You're falling down
 
 
Emadd9    Emadd9/G    A9    C7 B7  (2x)
 
E7sus4
 
 
 
[Bridge 2]
      Em                        Em11/A
If I have been hiding while you've been deciding
 
   A                      Dm
To throw all I have for you on the floor
 
          Em                Em11/A
I've been calling, calling, calling your name
 
    A
And now that you've fallen
 
    Dm
I'm hoping again
 
            Am
That you'll listen to me
 
                 Emadd9   A9    C7    B7
You'll listen to me.
 
 
 
[Outro]
   Emadd9  A9     C7   B7   A7   G7   B/F#
You will not give in.

I'm a little confused here, sometimes the chords listed above the lyrics correlate with the ones listed above and sometime they don't, or they do except for a different letter. Am I missing something, or are these just typos?
