There are a few things here that I'm not sure about (for example if the Cmaj7 chord is
played anywhere else besides the intro etc), but I've been playing the song like this
for years now and thought I'd share it.
 
Intro:  G  D  Cmaj7  C
 
     G                     D
You built it up brick by brick
          C               C
Put your heart into this baseless myth
 G                   D
Nurtured it like a child
      F                          C
And dressed its wounds when it ran wild
 
      G                  D
You stopped to fix your face
         C                   C
Someone else stepped in and took your place
     G                    D
Now everything you once knew
    F                C
Is running circles around you
 
   Bm               Em       C
A car door slamming in your road
    D                           Dsus4  D
It jolts you like a kick inside
   Bm              Em        C
A year old message on your phone
      D                              Dsus4
That catches you when you can’t hide
 
Chorus:
D                  C      Em      D
I see you in the service station sign
                  Em   D      C
I see you in the supermarket line
                 C    Em    D
I see you silhouetted on a wall    
             Em     D            C
But I don't see myself there at all
 
      G                D
This vessel of Balsa wood
        C                 C
Is the fag end tail of amoeba-hood
     G               D
The busying cast confer
     F                       C
And get their taste of the drama
 
     Bm                     Em       C
You stare through mindless daytime shows
     D                             Dsus4  D
And curse yourself for growing old
      Bm               Em     C
The sterile scent of shaving foam
   D                         Dsus4
Reminds you of another world
 
Chorus:
D                 C        Em     D
I see you in the roofless sombre sky
                    Em     D       C
I see you when the lovers stop outside
                 C    Em    D
I see you silhouetted on a wall
             Em    D             C
But I don't see myself there at all
 
                   C       Em       D
I see you in the sweetness of our child
                  Em   D      C
I see you in the supermarket aisle
                     C      Em       D
I see you when I’m kneeling on the floor
             Em    D       C
But I can't see myself anymore
 
Solo:  G  D  C  C  G  D  Asus4/F  C  C
 
Bridge:
 Em         C       G            D         G      C
Hard times got the upper hand, stole our feeble plans
     Em      C        G             D     G         C
The faces, shot me, spin me round, but I won’t lie down
 Em          C       G            D              G     C
Hard times shake me to the bone, face bruised, bloody nose
 Em              C       G               D      G         C   Em
Shell shocked, crawling on the ground, still I won’t lie down
 
Em  C  G  D         G        C
            No, I won't lie down
Em  C  G  D         G        C
            No, I won't lie down
Em  C  G   Dadd4    G         C
                I won't lie down
