----------------------||  guitar 2 (riff A)  the guitar is absent from most 
----------------------||   of the verse, but this riff is played
----------------------||

I've watched the stars fall silent from your eyes
Oh the sights that I have seen  (riff A)
I can't believe that I believed 
I wish that you could see (riff A)
that there's a new planet in the solar system
there is nothing up my sleeve (riff A)

CHORUS
In that chorus...
I think the bassline is going C,B,A.
So I reckon that C, C/B and Am(or maybe the Am7 as in the verse)
It sounds like it matches the song, but is probably a bit off.

C     C/B        Am7
 I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs        
I'm tossing out punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
G(strum)
crashing to the grouououond

then back into the verse.
