Capo on 4
 
C/B: 001020
 
[Verse]
C
        C
There's glass in the park
           Dm             G            Dm
Darling, I can't help but keep making appointments
   G                 C
To sweep beneath the climbing frame
 
       C                   C
If the sun's in your eyes,
                  Dm            G
I'll tighten your blindfold, baby
                 Dm             G
Don't worry your foot won't get cut
      C                C/B
Strut carelessly
 
[Chorus]
Dm                            G
    And when you say that you need me tonight
  Am         C/B   F
I can't keep my    feelings in disguise
    Dm               G        Am    Dm
The white part of my eyeballs illuminate
 
F                      C
     And I'll wait for you
          F                      C   C/B
As if I'm waiting for a storm to stop
Dm
   I've heard them talking
              G
About how I'm gonna put you off
 
[Verse]
        C
There's glass in the park
                 Dm        G
And now that I'm up off my knees
     Dm            G
I've picked up the speed
             C
To jump your palaces
 
 [Chorus]
      C
And I shoot through the night
             Dm             G
And suddenly all those once lost  
Dm          G
concoctions froth
              C
And chase the day away
 
Dm                            G
    And when you say that you need me tonight
  Am         C/B  F
I can't keep my   feelings in disguise
    Dm               G        Am    Dm
The white part of my eyeballs illuminate
 
F                      C
     And I'll wait for you
          F                      C   C/B
As if I'm waiting for a storm to stop
Dm
   I've heard them talking
              G
About how I'm gonna put you off
 
F                                                    E
    You tell me, how can I put you off when you're a matter of urgency?
           Am                                            F
I've got a million things that I need to do, but they're all secondary
Dm                   G
Make sure you're not followed
C              C/B       Am
Meet me by the Death Balloon
 
Dm                         G
Paraselene woman, I'm your man on the moon
           Am       C/B     F
And like a grain of diamond dust, you float
       Dm               G     C
And my devotion's outer crust cracks. 
 
 
Sounds roughly right to me. Enjoy.

it sounds better, when capo is on 2 fret. then it is much alike the original song :)

It's not perfect, but it's a pretty good first attempt. A few chords are wrong, but it's roughly right if you just play it on an acoustic guitar. However, I think it sounds much more like the actual recording if you have a capo on the second fret.

Suggestion: Dm and G for "Make sure you're not followed"
