Ship in a Bottle  Bright Eyes

Here?s a tab for Ship in a Bottle by Bright Eyes. It?s not an easy one to tab, but I
this is accurate, and it works OK even if it?s not entirely right.
Intro: F#m D x4
(use the 2nd fret F#m and the open D, because you need to hit the F# on the high E
every time you play)
I [F#m]wanna be the surgeon that [D]cuts you open,
That[F#m] fixes all of li[D]fe's mistakes
I [F#m]wanna be the house that [D]you were raised in
The[F#m] only place that [D]you feel safe
I [F#m]wanna be a shower i[D]n the morning
Tha[F#m]t wakes you up and [D]makes you clean
I [F#m]know I'm just the weather a[D]gainst your window
As [F#m]you sleep through a [D]winter's drea[A]m
[F#m]Someones churning the earth
Someone's stirring the[C#m] sky
[E]Every color at once in a column of [F#m]lights
[F#m]Bacteria breeds on a microscope[C#m] slide
[E]The worm in my heart's the a[Ab]pple of your eye
Don't a[A]dore what is im[B]possible
We have [E]built this ship in a w[Ab]ine bottle
But if you knew how it [A]worked,
We'd have to grow [Ab]old
Bridge: F#m D x12
[A]  
[F#m]Someone's eating at you, wakes you up in the [C#m]night
[E]If you're digging the past, who knows what you'll[F#m] find
[F#m]Read the newspaper print off the microfiche [C#m]slide
[E]And you're holding your breath for the [Ab]rest of your life
Don't you [A]love what is int[B]angible
I have [E]built this ship in a [Ab]wine bottle
But if you knew who I [A]waaaaaas...
You would never grow [Ab]old
