Note: r1. seems to be an overdubbed part played 
   over a G7 chord so if you find this to be too 
   difficult or whatever just play a G7.


Intro:
Cmaj7    D    Em7    D
Cmaj7    D    A7


Verse 1:
Cmaj7                   G
Although she's none the wiser
A7                    Cmaj7
Although we've barely met
        G
I could recognize her
         A7               Cmaj7
From the treatment that I get
                   G
So it's my duty to advise her
       A7
If she breaks the rules
     Cmaj7                 D
I've said I'll quit though I'll admit
     A7
That hasn't happened yet


Chorus 1:
(N.C.)          Cmaj7    D
I believe she's lying
               Em7          D               Cmaj7    D
I trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
             Em7             D                Cmaj7    D
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
      A7
Given time


Verse 2:
Cmaj7             G
As sure as she is sitting here
A7                    Cmaj7
She's sure that she's awake
                 G
And soon as were committing
     A7            Cmaj7
Were admitting our mistake
                       G
So of course it's only fitting
         A7                    Cmaj7
That the course we're going to take
             D
Is drawn and whereupon 
    A7
I'm slamming on the breaks


Chorus 2:
(N.C.)          Cmaj7    D
I believe she's lying
               Em7          D               Cmaj7    D
I trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
             Em7             D                Cmaj7    D
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
      A7
Given time
       Cmaj7    D
It's a given
      A7    r1.(or n.c.)
Given time


Bridge:

Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7


Verse 3:
Cmaj7        G
The power of suggestion
A7             Cmaj7
The element of chance
                       G
And the subject now in question
       A7            Cmaj7
Is the same old song and dance
                     G
And the time that we invest in
        A7           Cmaj7
Setting traps out in advance
          D
So we can spend the weekend
A7
Staring in a trance


Chorus 3:
(N.C.)          Cmaj7    D
I believe she's lying
               Em7          D               Cmaj7    D
I trust her to undermine my faith in her in time
             Em7             D                Cmaj7    D
I have every confidence that she'll dismantle mine
      A7
Given time
       Cmaj7    D
It's a given
      A7
Given time
       Cmaj7    D
It's a given
      A7    r1.(or n.c.)
Given time


Outro:

Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7    r1.(or G7)
Dm7    A7    Cm7

Great song. I recommend playing it with bar chords as 
opposed to open chords.  I'm pretty sure that's how Jon played 
it on the album but I'm not totally sure.
