This is my first ever tab so bear with me.  I think I've got it.
When strumming Bm chord you can alternate and hit the 5th fret of first E string
to sound like record. Enjoy!
 
INTRO: Am          Bm         Am          Bm
       Am          Bm         Am          Bm
 
VERSE 1:
Am          Bm         Am          Bm
High on the bell tower
Am          Bm         Am          Bm
I took my view 
Am          Bm         Am          Bm
Over the downtowns 
Am          Bm         Am          Bm
On the avenues 
Am                 Bm         Am          Bm
Where the streets are wide 
Am                 Bm         Am          Bm
And the people thrive
Am                 Bm         Am          Bm
And its further to fall down
Am                 Bm         Am          Bm
Cause you fly so high 
 
PRECHORUS
 
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such a beauty 
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such clear skies 
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such high hopes 
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such tired eyes 
 
CHORUS:
F     Am                G
And I wish that I could be
G               F
Everything you are 
Am              G
Everything you are
 
Am          Bm         Am          Bm
Am          Bm         Am          Bm
 
VERSE 2: Chords same as VERSE 1
Down in the delta
The city wakes
Turns on the TV
As the levee breaks
 
Where the streets are burned
From the hot summer sun
And there's nowhere to run to
When your time has come
 
PRECHORUS:
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such  beauty 
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such clear skies 
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such high hopes 
Am          Bm         Am     Bm
I've never seen such tired eyes 
 
Am       Bm       Am       Bm
Pull the roots up piece by piece 
Am   Bm   Am      Bm
Felt life washing over me
Am      Bm         Am     Bm
Take my pills and went to sleep 
Am     Bm       Am     Bm         F
Ohhhhhhhh, and I sang myself to sleep 
 
CHORUS:
F     Am                G
And I wish that I could be 
G               F
Everything you are 
Am              G
Everything you are 
F     Am                G
And I wish that I could see 
G                     F
The world the way you do 
Am              G
As selfishly as you

Very well done! There's only one thing (with the verses) that bothers me, since it isn't correct... The second part of Prechorus 2 should be: "Pulled the roots up piece by piece, felt life watching over me, took my pills and I went to sleep, Oooooh, and I sang myself to sleep."
