Have to love Björk! Will do a tab for this!
 
If you see *, it's because you COULD play Em7/B A/B, but you don't have to.

Bm7        Em7/B A/B
  Darling     stop confusing me
Bm7         Em7/B A/B
   With your wishful thinking
Bm7      Em7/B A/B
 Hopeful embraces
G/B           Em7/B A/B
  Don't you understand?
 
 
[Verse B]
 
Bm7              *
  I have to go through this
Bm7
   I belong to here where
  *
No-one cares and no-one loves
Bm7                  *
  No light no air to live in
Bm7
A place called hate
[mute]
    The city of fear

[Verse C]
 
Bm7        Em7/B A/B
     I play dead
Bm7        Em7/B A/B
  It stops the hurting
Bm7        Em7/B A/B
   I play dead
Bm7        Em7/B A/B
   And the hurting stops
 
 
[Verse D]
 
Bm7                       *
  It's sometimes just like sleeping
Bm7           *
 Curling up inside my private tortures
Bm7                       *
     I nestle into pain
Bm7
Hug suffering
[mute]
Caress every ache
 
 
[Bridge]
 
E/B   E/B   E/B   E7/B
Ahh - ahh - ahh - ahh
 
 
[Instrumental until fade]
 
Bm7     |Em7/B |Bm7   |Em7/B
 I play dead,   it stops the hurting

Awesome! But I think it is easier with capo 3rd and transpose -2 (B -> A)
