I waited 'til I saw the sun
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
I don't know why I didn't come
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Daug
I left you by the house of fun
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
I don't know why I didn't come
Gm7 C7 F7sus
I don't know why I didn't come
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Daug
When I saw the break of day
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
I wished that I could fly away
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj Daug
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
Catching teardrops in my hand
[Chorus]
Gm7 C7 F F7
My heart is drenched in wine
Gm7 C7 F7
But you'll be on my mind
F7/Eb Bb/D F/C
For ev er
[Verse 2]
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Daug
Out across the endless sea
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
I would die in ecstasy
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Daug
But I'll be a bag of bones
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
Driving down the road alone
[Chorus]
Gm7 C7 F F7
My heart is drenched in wine
Gm7 C7 F7
But you'll be on my mind
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 D7#5 Gm7 C7 F7sus Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7 Daug Gm7 C7 F7sus
For ev er
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Daug
Something has to make you run
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
I don't know why I didn't come
Bbmaj7 Bb7 Ebmaj7 Daug
I feel as empty as a drum
Gm7 C7 F7 Bb
I don't know why I didn't come
Gm7 C7 F7 Bb
I don't know why I didn't come
Gm7 C7 F7sus Bb
I don't know why I didn't come

Great tab! Seems to be almost correct and in the same key as the album version. Only thing I don't get is the second "But you'll be on my mind forever" - I just play the descending bassline over F like in the first part again.
Dashrockstone: you're right.
I like to play the chords like this, I find they flow into eachother very nicely:
Bbmaj7[tab][/tab]6X776X or 6XX765
Bb7[tab][/tab]6X676X or 6XX754
Ebmaj7[tab][/tab]X6878X
D+[tab][/tab]X5877X
Gm7[tab][/tab]3X333X
C7[tab][/tab]X3231X
Fsus[tab][/tab]131311
Bb[tab][/tab]X1333X

Quick reminder for myself : D7 (5th fret) sounds as good but easier to play
