The whole song is detuned so that's why the chords will sound a bit off.
For an easier way to play use capo 1 and transpose -1.

[Intro]
Db/Ab Gb Bbm Bbm/F x2
 
[Verse 1]
Db/Ab     Gb
I need to cry
      Bbm       Bbm/F
But I can't get anything out of my eyes
Db/Ab Gb          Bbm    Bbm/F
Or my head, did I die?
Db/Ab     Gb
I need to run
      Bbm              Bbm/F
But I can't get out of bed for anyone
Db/Ab   Gb   Bbm    Bbm/F
Not for you, hun
 
Db/Ab Gb Bbm Bbm/F x2
 
[Verse 2]
Db/Ab    Gb      Bbm
My sour boy is a pain
      Bbm/F
I wanna shoot him in the brain
Db/Ab  Gb                Bbm    Bbm/F
But I'd miss him in the morning
Db/Ab     Gb
It really hurts
      Bbm         Bbm/F
When I need to so bad but I can't see her
Db/Ab  Gb             Bbm    Bbm/F
My Juliet, my special girl
 
[Chorus]
Ebm                      Gb
But I need to understand
       Db/Ab     Gb
When I can power through
           Bbm                  Gb
And when I need some help from you
       Db/Ab           Gb
When I should stand my ground
           Bbm              Gb
And when I need to just sit down
            Db/Ab       Gb
Sometimes I act like I know
         Bbm           Gb
But I'm really just a kid
          Db/Ab        Gb
With two corks in his eyes
       Bbm         Gb
And a bully in his head
 
Db/Ab Gb Bbm Bbm/F x2
 
[Verse 2]
Db/Ab     Gb
I wanna make
    Bbm             Bbm/F
A colour that no one else has seen before
Db/Ab   Gb        Bbm    Bbm/F
I wanna be so much more
Db/Ab       Gb
I hope that she
         Bbm            Bbm/F
Looks at me and thinks shit, he's so pretty
Db/Ab   Gb        Bbm    Bbm/F
Something I can't believe
 
Db/Ab Gb Bbm Bbm/F
Ebm F Gb Gbm
Db/Ab Gb Bbm Bbm/F
Ebm F Gb Gbm
 
[Chorus]
Ebm                      Gb
But I need to understand
       Db/Ab     Gb
When I can power through
           Bbm                  Gb
And when I need some help from you
       Db/Ab           Gb
When I should stand my ground
           Bbm              Gb
And when I need to just sit down
            Db/Ab       Gb
Sometimes I act like I know
         Bbm           Gb
But I'm really just a kid
          Db/Ab        Gb
With two corks in his eyes
       Bbm         Gb
And a bully in his head
 
Db/Ab Gb Bbm Gb
 
            Db/Ab       Gb            Bbm           Gb
Sometimes I act like I know, but I'm really just a kid
          Db/Ab       Gb          Bbm           Gb
With two corks in his eyes, and a bully in his head
            Db/Ab       Gb            Bbm           Gb
Sometimes I act like I know, but I'm really just a kid
          Db/Ab       Gb          Bbm           Gb
With two corks in his eyes, and a bully in his head

The chords sound great! But, on Cavetown's Bandcamp site, the lyrics actually say "With two corks in his eyes" for the record.
