This is the version off the album. Best to play it with bar chords.
The Gmaj7 isn't exactly right, but the tab at the beginning is, so just play that
chord the whole time for it. Enjoy!

           G                                    Gmaj7 [3 5 4 4 3 3]
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
       Em
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
       Am
Oh taking your advice and I'm looking on the bright side 
     C                  D
And balancing the whole thing
        G                                  Gmaj7
Oh but often times those words they get tangled up in lines
         Em
And the bright light turns to night
      Am
Oh until the dawn it brings another day to sing
           C                     D
About the magic that was you and me


                G         Gmaj7
Cause you and I both loved
                Em
What you and I spoke of 
                 Am
And others just read of
             C           D
Others only read of the love
                    G   Gmaj7
Of the love that I love 
              Em
yeah la-be-de-dum


                       G
See I'm all about them words
     Gmaj7                          Em
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
                                   Am
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards
                           C                    D
More words than I had ever heard and I feel so alive


                 G        Gmaj7
Cause you and I both loved
                Em
What you and I spoke of 
                 Am
And others just read of
                  C             D
And if you could see me now oh love love
 G
You and I you and I
 Gmaj7                     Em
Not so little you and I anymore

    Am          
And with this silence brings a moral story 
                  C                         D
more importantly evolving is the glory of a boy
                 G         Gmaj7
Cause you and I both loved
                Em
What you and I spoke of 
                 Am
And others just read of
                  C
And if you could see me now
              D               G
Well then I'm almost finally out of
          Gmaj7                Am
Finally ou-ou-out of final-la-de-de-de-da-de
           C             D                            G
Well I'm almost finally finally well I am free oh I'm free 


          C (8th fret)          Dm
and it's okay if you had to go away
          G              D                      
oh just remember the telephones well they workin 'em 
Em
both ways
          C                   D
But if I never ever hear them ring
           G                   D
if nothing else I'll think the bells inside 
      Em                                        C
have finally found you someone else and that's o-o-okay
           D
cause I'll remember everything you sang
                 G        Gmaj7
Cause you and I both loved
                Em
What you and I spoke of 
                 Am
And others just read of
                  C
And if you could see me now
                D             G
Well then I'm almost finally out of
          Gmaj7                Am
Finally ou-ou-out of final-la-de-de-de-da-de
           C              D                  G
Well I'm almost finally finally well out of words
