Okay, I just felt the need to play this song and couldn't find chords anywhere, so I drafted this thing out.
It's pretty simple though, more acoustic-y than the original, but it sounds fine:D
(Oh, and it's on the fourth fret because my guitar sounds horrible if I play it without a capo and I didn't 
want to transpose the whole thing. Feel free to play it wherever you wish). 
[Verse 1]
Cut me dGown from thCese roof bGeams
Cause I've been swinging like a scaEmrecrow
Yeah, I've been living in a bCad dream
Forgive my nGame, foCrget my sGins
Remember danCcing in the staiEmrwell
Remember getting high in BrCooklyn
I'm not completely naGive, I knew that Cit was the eGnd
When I heard you cCrying on the bEmack porch
When I heard you're marrying your boyCfriend
You feel like heaven and hGell and sometimes noCthing at aGll
But hoEmnestly I'm so much happier when yoCu're not in my thoughts
[Chorus]
Cause I don't kGnow, how to lCet you Ggo
No, Emoh, oh, nCo, oh, Goh
Yeah I don't knGow, how to lCet you Ggo
I still dEmon't, I still dCon't
I still doGn't
[Verse 2]
Remember wGhen yCou were mGine
I was tweCnty, you were niEmneteen
Mapping out the rest of oCur lives 
Should we have got married tGhen?
Have you forCgotten my nGame?
And tell me baby, have Emall the lips you kissed
Since mine taCsted or felt the same
[Chorus]
Cause I don't kGnow, how to lCet you Ggo
No, Emoh, oh, nCo, oh, Goh
Yeah I don't knGow, how to lCet you Ggo
I still dEmon't, I still dCon't
I still doGn't

[Verse 1]

G C G

Cut me down from these roof beams

Cause I've been swinging like a scarecrow

Yeah, I've been living in a bad dream

G C G

Forgive my name, forget my sins

C Em

Remember dancing in the stairwell

Remember getting high in Brooklyn

G C G

I'm not completely naive, I knew that it was the end

C Em

When I heard you crying on the back porch

When I heard you're marrying your boyfriend

G C G

You feel like heaven and hell and sometimes nothing at all

Em C

But honestly I'm so much happier when you're not in my thoughts

[Chorus]

G C G

Cause I don't know, how to let you go

Em C G

No, oh, oh, no, oh, oh

G C G

Yeah I don't know, how to let you go

Em C

I still don't, I still don't

I still don't

[Verse 2]

G C G

Remember when you were mine

C Em

I was twenty, you were nineteen

Mapping out the rest of our lives

Should we have got married then?

C G

Have you forgotten my name?

And tell me baby, have all the lips you kissed

Since mine tasted or felt the same

[Chorus]

G C G

Cause I don't know, how to let you go

Em C G

No, oh, oh, no, oh, oh

G C G

Yeah I don't know, how to let you go

Em C

I still don't, I still don't

I still don't
