Pretty much similar to the other chords that are on here for this song, but slightly 
tweaked the lyrics as I saw fit, and matched the chords per line for the entire song, not 
just the first verse.
Ayou left me there
Waiting at the Am7bottom of the stairs
with my eyes closed
AHolding my right hand iEmn my left
there is Gno time Dfor
AhesitatioEn now
you Gcome or Dgo
or Ago
Arustlin' leaves
falling besAm7ide me on a ghost
of a morning
Ariding in sorrow to Emthe harbor
Far beGhind o' Dme
Athe bodies of mEy friends
hanGging aDlone
alone Aagain
ASome twisted form
tells me you Gsaw me in the night
with another
Akeep all my promises to Embreak them
I am Gno--oh, Dno
Ainnocent Eson
Gyou run, rabbit, run
