This is what I've figured after listening the acoustic & album version of the
song. The other tabs were close, but a couple chords were off. Comments and corrections welcome :)

Chords used: Gm, Cm, F, D7, Am, Dm, G, E7


[Intro]



[Verse 1]
            
About as subtl

           
e as an earthq

uake, I know
             
my mistakes we

            
re made for yo

u

(          
& in the b

          
ack room of a 

bad dream she 

came
             
& whisked 

         
me away, enthu

sed

(          
& it's as 

       
solid as a roc

k rolling down

 a hill
            
the fact is th

              
at it prob'ly 

         
will hit somet

hing
              
on the hazardo

   
us terrain

(          
& we're ju

             
st following t


he flock 'roun

d and in betwe

en
            
before we're s

              
mashed to smit

             
hereens like t

hey were
              
and we scrambl

           
e from the bla

me


[Chorus]
(       
& it's the

 fame that put

 words in her 

mouth
    
she couldn't h

elp but spit '

em out
            
innocence &amp

            
; arrogance en

              
twined in the 

         
filthiest of m

inds


[Verse 2]
            
She was bitten

        
 on her birthd

ay and now
             
a face in the 

            
crowd she's no

t

            
& I suspec

          
t that now for

ever the shape
             
she came to es

           
cape is forgot


[Chorus]
(     
& it's a l

ot to ask her 

not to sting
  
& give her

 less than ev'

rything
            
around your cr

              
ooked conscien

            
ce she will wi

nd


[Bridge]
        

(          
Cos we're just

              
 following the

  
 flock 'round 

& in betwe

en
            
before we're s

              
mashed to smit

             
hereens like t

hey were
              
& we scram

         
ble from the b

lame


[Chorus]
(       
& it's the

 fame that put

 words in her 

mouth

she couldn't h

elp but spit '

em out
            
around your cr
