Chords

This is my first tab! I've been wondering what the chords to this song were for so long. It's quite possibly my favorite song ever. Someone already made a nice little tab but it didn't sound quite right. So, I sat down and really invested some time into learning the chords. I think these chords are fairly accurate. The distorted note at the beginning is a D. The note that follows is an A. ---DISTORTED INTRO--- Em Em Em Em Pretty sure that's it. Then, at about 0:22... ---INTRO--- Em G Bm D ---VERSE 1---
Em              Em          Bm                   D
Little Faith... follow me.  I set a fire... in a blackberry field.

Em                  Em             Am                      D
Make us laugh... or nothing will.  I set a fire... just to see what it kills.

          Em                         Em
Now we're stuck in New York, and the rain's coming down.

        Am                    D
I don't feel like we'll go anywhere.

Em                         Em
Stuck in New York, and the rain's coming down.

         Bm                 D
Still in line for the vanity fair...

Em                Em
........Leave our red, southern souls...

Bm                  D
........Head for the coast...

Em                Em

........Everything goes...
---CHORUS 1---
Em                               Em
All our lonely kicks are getting harder to find.

           Bm                     D
We'll play nuns vs. Priests until somebody cries.

Em                                   Em
All our lonely kicks they'll make us saintly and thin.

           Bm                     D
We'll play nuns vs. Priests until somebody wins.
D ---VERSE 2---

Awesome prince... get your sleep.  Lose your high... history.

Em                  Em             Am                      D
Make us laugh... or nothing will.  I set a fire... just to see what it kills.
D ---BRIDGE---
G                            G
Don't be bitter, Anna, I know how you think...

       D                D7
You're waiting for Radio City to sink...

            G                  G
You'll find comiseration in everyone's eyes...

    D                                  D7
The storm will suck the pretty girls into the sky...
