Excellent moody one from the 'early material' CD.
[intro]:
||: Gm Bb Cm* F Bb Gm :|| x 2
mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mm
[chorus]:
Gm Bb Cm F Bb Gm
what you gonna do what you gonna do about me
Gm Bb Cm F Bb
what you gonna do what you gonna do about
Eb Dm Am Gm +
me-ee whoa-oah
[verse]:
Gm Gm Gm / Bb Gm Gm Bb Cm
you used to bury me way underground
Cm Gm F F/Gm
thought it had to be this way
Gm Gm Gm/Bb Gm Gm Bb Cm
but i've been watching, watching you
Cm Gm F/ Gm
and I get smarter everyday
Gm Gm Gm/Bb Gm Gm Gm Gm Bb/Cm
take the voices from your mouth
Gm F F/Gm
I've got the key to this door
Gm Gm/Bb Gm Gm Gm
I-I learned to work the new machine
Gm Bb/Cm Gm
I'm not afraid anymore & I say
[chorus]:
Gm Bb Cm F Bb Gm
what you gonna do what you gonna do about me
Gm Bb Cm F Bb Eb Dm
what you gonna do what you gonna do about me-ee
Am Gm+
whoa-a whoa-hoa
Gm Gm/Bb Gm Gm Bb/Cm Gm
you've been stealing all the air, you've been using all the sound
I made a deal with the o-o-ocean, I made a deal with the ground
[chorus]
[break]
[repeat intro]
[bridge]:
Gm Bb Cm
I am riding on the bus I am working at my job
F Gm
I am calling out your name I am standing at your door
Gm Bb Cm
I am counting out the money I am carrying my child
F Gm
I am coming down your driveway I am giving you a chance
[chorus]
x is strum, but mute the strings at the neck
h is a hammer on
p is a pull off
/ is a SLIDE UP throughout this tab- there no chords with non-root notes
in the bass, so "Gm/Bb" is Gm at the 3rd fret, then slide up to Bb at the
6th and NOT Gm with Bb in the bass, same goes for Bb/Cm and F/Gm
chords
E A D G B e
3 5 5 3 3 3 - Gm
6 8 8 7 6 6 - Bb (this fingering mostly)
x 1 3 3 3 1 - Bb (in the intro)
8 10 10 9 8 8 - Cm
1 3 3 2 1 1 - F
11 13 13 12 11 11 - Eb

I've tabbed most of this song out, but it'll be ages before I get to key
it all in. Here's a couple of the main picked parts(* and + in the
chorus), if you want the full monty in tab then send me a mail.
