*STANDARD TUNING NO CAPO*
 
This is my very first tab, so I hope it turns out okay.
 
I was looking and could not find any good tabs for this amazing song that were the least bit easy to play, so
I decided to make my own.
 
This is intended to be an acoustic tab of the original version, so I hope it's decent.
 
Here it goes!

(I skipped the very beginning because I couldn't find a way to make it not sound the same as the part I put 
in.)
 
Intro D , G , Cmaj7 , G , D  (x2)
 
[verse 1]
 
D                            G
Maybe I've been the problem, maybe I'm the one to blame
C                               G             D
But even when I turn it off and blame myself, the outcome feels the same
D                                                G
I've been thinkin maybe I've been partly cloudy, maybe I'm the chance of rain
C                   G                A
Maybe I'm overcast, and maybe all my lucks washed down the drain
 
[pre-chorus]
 
D                                  A        Cmaj7          G
I've been thinking 'bout everyone, everyone you look so lonely
 
[chorus]
 
D
But when I look at the stars,
               G
when I look at the stars,
                   Cmaj7  G  D
when I look at the sta    rs I see someone else
 
D
When I look at the stars,
Em       A
the stars, I feel like myself
 
[verse 2]
 
D                          G
Stars lookin at our planet watching entropy and pain
C                                 G            D
And maybe start to wonder how the chaos in our lives could pass as sane
D                                                       G
I've been thinking bout the meaning of resistance, of a hope beyond my own
C                             G        A
And suddenly the infinite and penitent begin to look like home
 
[pre-chorus]
 
D                                 A        Cmaj7          G
I've been thinking bout everyone, everyone you look so empty
 
[chorus]
 
D
But when I look at the stars,
               G
when I look at the stars,
                   Cmaj7  G  D
when I look at the sta    rs I see someone else
 
D
When I look at the stars,
Em       A
the stars, I feel like myself
 
[bridge]
D         A        Cmaj7          G
everyone, everyone we feel so lonely
D             A         Cmaj7      G
everyone, yeah everyone we feel so empty
 
[chorus] (first two lines muted)
 
When I look at the stars,
 
when I look at the stars,
                   Cmaj7  G  D
when I look at the sta    rs I feel like myself
D
When I look at the stars
Em       A
the stars, I see someone... 
 
D , G , Cmaj7 , G , D
