This version is the best one for piano players. It may not sound as nice on guitar, but these are the exact chords played in the song and are based off of a full transcription I did. (The (#5)s are real notations that accurately describe the chord being played—it is not an aug chord if the third is lowered or absent.).Was this info helpful?

[Verse 1]
    C5       Caug       C#5
I'm all used up, pretty boy
C#(#5)        F                         Fmaj7         C
Over and over again, my nail colors are wearing off
       Caug          C#m
See my hands, pretty boy
C#m(#5)
What do they tell you?
       Fmaj7       Dm/F             Dm/A     Am       C5   Caug
'Cause I've looked down at them, not knowing why
          C#m          C#m(#5)      F
And after everything's done and I'm all undone
        Fmaj7                     C    Caug
You can hear my high heels walking on
C#m      C#m(#5)              Fmaj7
Clickety-clacking through the night
    Dm/F        Dm/A  Am
I'm carrying my bag of bones

[Chorus]
C           G/B              Am7                Fmaj7  G/B
Fluorescent store lights, you shine through the night
  Am7         E7/B         Am        Fmaj7   G/B   Am6
Illuminate my pores and you tear me apart
         E(b9)/B             Am7         Fmaj7
Mercy on me, would you please spare me tonight?
    Am7           E7(b9)/B            Am7 C/G    F5
I'm tired of this searching, would you let me let go?
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
 
C5   C(#5)   C#5   C#(#5)
 
F   Fmaj7   G
 
 
[Verse 2]
  C5      Caug      C#5
I know my room is a mess
C#(#5)         F                      Fmaj7            C
Over and over again I tell myself I'll clean tomorrow
              Caug             C#m
Just move the stuff up off the bed
    C#m(#5)                  Fmaj7
And do what you came here to do
           Dm/F      Dm/A       Am   C5   Caug
But first, open up a window for me
            C#m      C#m(#5)      F
And let the cool air in, feel the night slip in
      Fmaj7                   C     Caug
As it softly glides along your back
      C#m            C#m(#5)          Fmaj7     Dm/F
And I hope you leave right before the sun comes up
         Dm/A      Am
So I can watch it alone
 
 
[Chorus]
C           G/B              Am7                Fmaj7  G/B
Fluorescent store lights, you shine through the night
  Am7         E7/B         Am        Fmaj7  G/B  Am6
Illuminate my pores and you tear me apart
   Am6   E(b9)/G# E/G#        Am7        F      Bdim
Mercy on me, would you please spare me tonight?
    Am7           E7/B                Am7 C/G    F5
I'm tired of this searching, would you let me let go?
 
 
[Outro]
    Am7          E7(b9)/B
And I can take a little bit more
      Am/C            F(b5)             C/E
Let's shake this poet out of the beast
               Em
Just a, just a little bit more
      Am7/G           Am         Bm
Let's shake this poet out of the beast
 
Am   Gsus   F(b5)  F5
 
Fmaj7   Fm(maj7)/Ab   D5/A   Bb   Bb(b5)
