[Verse 1]
E                      C#m
Alice, Alice I'm well aware
               A                        B
There are some strange things where you live
            E
And I won't go there
E
Down which hallway and through which door
C#m
What's this wonderland here for?
A               B                 E
Turn my cards, queen of hearts, as you go there
 
[Verse 2]
E
Busy busy busy bees
C#m
These humans are such mysteries
A                         B                 E
Floating around and never knowing what they want
E                                         C#m
So go forth, go forth with your morning, dear
A                                        B                    E
With the sun's arms on your back and the love that you left behind
 
[Verse 3]
E
First of all, it was the year of the boar
C#m
And he greeted you with horns on your passenger door
       A                               B                 E
In the middle of the traffic on the morning of our full moon
E
Fleeing into the coffee fields
C#m
I'm dragging guilt, tied to my heels
A
My friend is coming and
B                      E
he means to reckon to me
 
[Chorus]
E
Favor his hands, blackened by fire
C#m
Favor our tempers and boyish desires
A                                 B                  E
There's a reason that you came to me lucidly in my sleep
E
Caught in the flow I just did what I do
C#m
I worked with my karma and over time too
A                                     B             E       C#m
There's a reason that you came to me lucidly in my sleep, hmmmm
 
[Bridge]
           A
I am no coward
           E
You're superhuman
            B
Tapped into power
C#m
Wooohooo
             A
The load is heavy
             E
Will you be ready?
                B
When the giants come
           E
I will be there
 
[Verse 4]
E                                  C#m
"You'll get yours" came out of my mouth
A
To the man who bound my hands
B                                  E
I began to scream and I began to shout
E
Sir, I know I've done many terrible things
C#m
And I'm concerned to finally find me in my dreams
A
Such bad behavior
B              E
I am not the same
 
[Verse 5]
E
I meet all my rage disguised as a man,
C#m
An angel appeared with a briefcase in hand
A                                      B                                 E
Didn't speak when he reached, he just held me like you hold someone you love
E
Cradled I wept right out of my slumber
C#m
Writing it down, this is what I remember
A                                        B            E      C#m
"There's a reason that you came to me lucidly in my sleep" mmmhmm
 
[Bridge]
         A
I am no coward
            E
You're superhuman
             B        C#m
Tapped into power, whoohooo
            A
The load is heavy
            E
Will you be ready?
                 B
When the giants come...
            E
I will be there
            C#m
I will be there
            A
I will be there
            B                      E
I will be there, when the giants come
(When the giants come)
                C#m
When the giants come
 (When the giants come)
           A                 B                     E
I will be there, I will be there when the giants come
 (When the giants come)
                 C#m
When the giants come
 (When the giants come)
            A                B                     E
I will be there, I will be there when the giants come
 (When the giants come)
                 C#m
When the giants come
 (When the giants come)
            A                B                     E
I will be there, I will be there when the giants come
 (When the giants come)
                 C#m
When the giants come
 (When the giants come)
            A                B                     E
I will be there, I will be there when the giants come
 (When the giants come)
                 C#m
When the giants come
 (When the giants come)
            A                B                     E
I will be there, I will be there when the giants come...
 
[Outro]
E                      C#m
Alice, Alice I'm well aware
                A                        B
There are some strange things where you live
                 E
And I have been there.

These are the correct chords. You can capo 2 and play D, C#m, A(bar), and A shapes to keep the chords closer together and more natural sounding. You'll notice with the capo 2 method that the pitch goes high to low as the song is intended to sound, I believe. The other two versions have GEmCD, which are all wrong chords, but sound harmonious on guitar. Thanks to whoever made this for the actual ear.
