E                    G

.. Go on parade and fade
(F#m)            C
Hit the ceiling slow
G                                 Em 
Spending all your time with some girl
                     C
You'll never get to know
G      (F#m)  c     
Wound   up   tight
G               Em
Dressed all in white
     D         A
Some torment saint
                 C
Blowing out to drift
A                   C    D
 ... Leave you even if

G                     Em
You live up in your head
(F#m)                   C
Scared of every little noise
G                                Em
Someone's always breaking in accidentally
                         C
Using nothing but their voice
G           C
Shrill and small
G              Em
Echo down the hall
D               A
Repeating pet names
                    C
Seeing it in your eyes
A                       C    
... You're only passing by

Chorus:
 
C#dim  D  D#    Em
. . . . . . . Go by
C#dim    D5 (slide to) E5   C
 ... Go by
   
E                G
Someone's in the way
       (F#m)             C
Pretty words and inside slurs
G
All the things they have to say
     Em                             C
To perform the work that they've rehearsed
G                C
It's a waste of time
G            Em
I put it behind me
D             A
Once and for all
                 C
And let the hype decline
A                          C
 .. If the problem wasn't mine

Repeat chorus, finish on C

You'll need to listen to the song to figure out how these lead parts fit in with 
the chords as they're quite tricky
