I think this song has been ever-so-slightly pitch shifted on the record.
These chords match up with their live performances though.

[Interlude]
E Amaj7 B
[Verse]
E Amaj7 B Flowers arriving in fleets, can't we talk about this? E Amaj7 B Why let the state in our sheets, can't we do without it?
[Pre-Chorus]
E Emaj7 G#m7 B7/F# E Well, I don't mean to wind you up, but I'd like to slow it down E Emaj7 G#m7 C#m How do I remain a pup if you put me in a gown?
[Chorus]
F#m7 What's it got to do with you? G#m7 What's it got to do with me? F#m7 C#m How can I lose control, when you're driving from the back seat? F#m7 What's it got to do with you? G#m7 What's it got to do with me? F#m7 B7 E How can I lose control, when you're driving from the back seat?

[Verse]
E Amaj7 B Corners begin to repeat, I think we're getting lost E Amaj7 B E We walked to the end of the street but we were bitten by the frost
[Pre-Chorus]
Emaj7 G#m7 B7 E So if you have to thaw me out, you can put me in a pail Emaj7 G#m C#m Can we take another route? I don't want to wear a veil
[Chorus]
F#m7 What's it got to do with you? G#m7 What's it got to do with me? F#m7 C#m How can I lose control, when you're driving from the back seat? F#m7 What's it got to do with you? G#m7 What's it got to do with me? F#m7 C#m7 How can I lose control, when you're driving from the back seat?
[Bridge]
F#m7 G#m7 C#m7 I'll wait in the lobby for someone to show, F#m7 G#m7 C#m7 And if they don't come, I will know where to go F#m7 G#m7 C#m7 The bodies are lined up outside in the hall, C#mmaj7/C F#m7 B7 I don't want to decay in a mall E F#m7 G#m7 F#m7 If everything you say is true, then why would I disagree, how could I lose control
[Chorus]
C#m F#m7 What's it got to do with you? G#m7 What's it got to do with me? F#m7 B7 E Amaj7 How can I lose control, when you're driving from the back seat? B E Amaj7 B When you're driving from the back seat?
