This is my first tab so it may be slightly wrong! However, this sounds perfectly okay on both piano and guitar :)
Intro: F  Dm x2
Verse 1:

F                      Dm           F          Dm
You tremble like you'd seen a ghost and i gave in

F                      Dm                   F               Dm
I lack the things you need the most you said, where have you been

F                      Dm                   F             Dm
You wasted all that sweetness to run and hide, I wonder why

F                       Dm                          F              Dm
I remind you of the days you poured your heart into, but you never tried
Pre-Chorus:
Dm
I've fallen from grace

Dm
Took a blow to my face

    Bb
I've loved and I've lost

    C
I've loved and I've lost
Chorus:
  Bb      Dm       F
Explosions...on the day you wake up

F                          Dm C   Am
Needing somebody and you've learned

        Bb      F
It's okay to be afraid

Bb                          F    Dm
But it will never be the same

                        F        Dm
It will never be the same
Verse 2:
F                   Dm
You left my soul bleeding in the dark

F                Dm
So you could be king

F                     Dm                     F                    Dm
The rules you set are still untold to me and I lost faith in everything
Pre-Chorus 2:
         Am                         Dm
The nights you could cope, your intentions were gold

            Am
But the mountains will shake

           C
I need to know I can still make
Chorus 2:
  Bb      Dm       F
Explosions...on the day you wake up

F                          Dm C   Am
Needing somebody and you've learned

        Bb      F
It's okay to be afraid

Bb                          F    Dm
But it will never be the same

                        Dm F Gm Bb
It will never be the same
Bridge:
Dm
And as the floods move in

F
And your body starts to sink

Gm
I was the last thing on your mind

Bb
I know you better than you think

Dm                        C                   Gm
Cause it's simple darling, I gave you a warning

                      Bb                              Dm
Now everything you own is falling from the sky in pieces

                  F                  Gm
So watch them fall with you, in slow motion

                            Bb
I pray that you will find peace of mind

                    Dm
And I'll find you another time

C                     Gm
I'll love you, another time
Final Chorus:
  Bb      Dm       F
Explosions...on the day you wake up

F                          Dm C   Am
Needing somebody and you've learned

        Bb      F
It's okay to be afraid

Bb                          F    Dm
But it will never be the same

                        F        Dm
It will never be the same
