I'm 100% sure these chords are completely accurate. I've played this song on the piano
many times and it sounds awesome.

Intro:
E D E G Em7
Em7
Love came to my door
A7sus4
With a sleeping roll
D/A
And a madman's soul
B7sus4
He thought for sure I'd seen him
Gmaj9 A
Dancing up a river in the dark
C G A/E
Looking for a woman to court and spark
A/E E D/E E A/E E D/E E A/E E D/E A/E E D/E E
Em7
He was playing on the sidewalk
A7sus4
For passing change
D/A
When something strange happened
B7sus4
Glory train passed through him
Gmaj9
So he buried the coins he made
A
In People's Park
C G A/E
And went looking for a woman to court and spark
A/E E D/E E A/E E D/E E A/E E D/E A/E E D/E E
C G
It seemed like he read my mind
D
He saw me mistrusting him
A
And still acting kind
C G
He saw how I worried sometimes
A/D
I worry sometimes
A/D(6x) A/E E D/E A/E E D/E A/E E D/E A/E E D/E E
Em7
"All the guilty people," he said
A7sus4
They've all seen the stain
D/A
On their daily bread
B7sus4 Bm
On their christian names
Gmaj7
I cleared myself
A
I sacrificed my blues
C G
And you could complete me
A/E
I'd complete you
A/E E D/E E A/E E D/E E A/E E D/E A/E E D/E E
Em7
His eyes were the colour of the sand
A7sus4
And the sea
D/A
And the more he talked to me, you know
B9sus4
The more he reached me
Gmaj9 A
But I couldn't let go of L.A.
C G A/D
City of the fallen angels
A/E E D/E (6x) End on E
