Version 2
            This is my interpretation of this gorgeous, heartbreaking tune. The original guitar
are a bit weird if you wanna play it and sing a long to the song so I made a tab
for strumming/picking.
I actually think the 4th chord sounds better as an C#m instead of E during the verses 
but I like the sound of the open strings there and they are relative major/minor anyway,
doesn't really make a big difference. Hope you like it. It sounds good to me but please 
comment if you have anything to add!

[Verse 1]

A      C#m             F#m       E
Sorrow found me when I was young
A      C#m             F#m      E
Sorrow waited, sorrow won
A           C#m           F#m      E
Sorrow they put me on the pill
A          C#m              F#m
It's in my honey it's in my milk


[Chorus]

E                    A          C#m
Don't leave my hyper heart alone
       F#m
On the water
E           A           C#m        F#m
Cover me in rag and bones, sympathy
E                       A        C#m     F#m
Cause I don't wanna get over you
E                 A        C#m     F#m
I don't wanna get over you

E (for one extra measure)


[Verse 2]

A          C#m         F#m       E
Sorrows my body on the waste
A           C#m            F#m       E
Sorrows the girl inside my cake
A           C#m         F#m       E
I live in a city sorrow build
A          C#m               F#m
It's in my honey, it's in my milk


[Chorus]

E                    A          C#m
Don't leave my hyper heart alone
       F#m
On the water
E           A           C#m        F#m
Cover me in rag and bones, sympathy
E                       A        C#m     F#m
Cause I don't wanna get over you
E                  A        C#m     F#m
I don't wanna get over you

E                    A          C#m
Don't leave my hyper heart alone
       F#m
On the water
E           A           C#m        F#m
Cover me in rag and bones, sympathy
E                       A        C#m     F#m
Cause I don't wanna get over you
E                 A        C#m     F#m
I don't wanna get over you

Same chords during the "choir" parts, stay on E for an extra measure and then end on A.
