For the F chords marked in brackets, these are optional, but that's 
a very long time to be playing just C if you don't put them in. 
Fmaj7 also works and is easier to play, but sounds darker.
[Intro]
F Am C G
F Am C G C
[Verse 1]
       C(  F)            C  
Somewhere high up in the air there
(  F)            Am(  F)         C  
I had long forgotten I belong to you
(  F)         C(  F)               C  
Some unconscious stream of twisted logic
(  F)                     Am                   G  C  
Caught me in its whirlwind, left me black and blue
[Chorus 1]
I was Fsenseless, battered and deAmfenceless
Rain became reClentless, leaving barren Gskies
I was Fbroken, all I left unsAmpoken
Left me torn wide Copen, Gbarely still Calive
[Verse 2]
                C(  F)           C  
Found your letter sealed away in storage
(  F)            Am(  F)           C  
Under my pretences, buried out of view
(  F)        C(  F)        C  
I recalled it hidden in a notebook
(  F)                 Am                 G  C  
Tattered, ruffled pages old but good as new
[Chorus 2]
I was Flistless, how could I have Ammissed this?
If you are the Cgroundswell, I'm tossed in your Gtide
I was Fcertain if I'd seen it Amcomin'
I'd have started Crunning Gback at the starting Cline
[Interlude]
F Am C G
F Am C G C
[Verse 3]
               C(  F)            C  
Well I faltered, left you at the altar
(  F)              Am(  F)        C  
Offering my apologies and my gratitude
(  F)               C(  F)          C  
Now there's a sinking feeling in my chest
      (  F)                  Am             G  C  
You're gonna love me less when I return to you
[Chorus 3]
But you were Fnever one to keep a Amrecord
One to hold aCgainst me all I failed to Gprove
I've been Ftethered, floating like a Amfeather
Anxious in my Croaming, Gstranded on the Cmove
[Outro]
F Am C G
F Am C G C
F Am C G
F Am C G C
