Yes, this is my first tab.
Chances are this is wrong, but I love the song and wrote this for my enjoyment.
The riff may or may not be correct, it's as close as i could be bothered 

getting it.  By Alex Kucharski (KinGAleX) fish_and_or_chips@hotmail.com

D         F#7/C# Bm7    E7 
There's a moment in my mind

  A        Asus4 A       Asus4
I scribbled and erased a thousand times

D      F#7/C#       Bm7        E7
Like a letter never written or sent

A     Asus4   A        Asus4



D           F#7/C#  Bm7      E7
These conversations with the dead

  A      Asus4 A    Asus4
I used to be a sentimental guy

D       F#7/C#  Bm7    E7     A      Asus4
Now I'm haunted by the left unsaid                             
  A     Asus4      D          1 
I never thought so much could change



D      F#7/C#     Bm7     E7
Little things you said or did

    A       Asus4
Are part of me

     A        Asus4   D
Come out from time to time

       F#7/C#   Bm7    E7
Though probably no one I know now

      A       Asus4
Would notice

      A     Asus4      D          1*
But I never thought so much could change



            Em/G     Gmaj#5    G    Gmajb5
You drifted far away

G           Em/G 
Far away it seems

Em
Time has stopped

    A          Asus4 A  1
The clock keeps go-ing



D      F#7/C#
People talking

Bm7     E7
And I'm watching

   A       Asus4    A     Asus4        D
As flashes of their faces go black and white

            F#7/C7
And fade to yellow

Bm7      E7    A     Asus4
In a box in an attic

      A     Asus4      D    F#7/C7   Bm7 
And I never thought so much

      E7           A         Asus4 A   
Could change now I don't miss any-one

Asus4           D     F#7/C#   Bm7
I don't miss anything

       E7
What a shame

  A      Asus4 A    Asus4  1**
I used to be a sentimental guy
