Chords used:
--------------------------
Am x02210
Bm x24432
[G] [355433]
--------------------------
In cases of G* it sounds really great if you shift to Am with the use of the riff below.
I'm not confident, but I think this makes up for some of the underlying banjo sounds.
Note that G is barred in order to use the riff properly.

Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
My heart is with you, its many dark corners
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
Its rings of smoke, its lighted hallways
Am G* Am G*
And I wish you could know all the ghosts in my bones
Am Bm G*
They are weeping, they are screaming
Am Bm G*
They are inside my body
[Am]O, let?s trade [G]skins
[Am]I?m rippling [G]in this [Am]skin that I?m [G]in
[Am]You could wear my [G]shoes, [Am]I could have your [G]hair
[Am]And think that it was [G]fair
Am G Am G G*
I?m rippling in the skin that I?m in
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
?I?m gonna build you,? she said, ?I?m gonna heal you,
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
I can feel every part of you, that holds it together?
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
And you always looked so happy when you were sleeping
[Am]Sleep is the [Bm]only [G]way sometimes
Am Bm G*
To live in a perfect world
[Am]It?s party [G]time, [Am]quiet and [G]sublime
[Am]Tonight there?s a [G]party, a [Am]party of [G]one
[Am]Like a wisp of [G]smoke, [Am]solitary and [G]thin
Am G Am G G*
The heat?s coming off the fires we built
Am Bm G*
Stars were meant to shoot
Am Bm G*
And waves were meant to crash
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
I?m hypnotized by the flicker, and saddened by the ash
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
And it?s complicated with desires and dreams
Am Bm G* Am Bm G*
With stiches and battle scars pulling apart at the seams
[Am]O, let?s trade [G]skins
[Am]I?m rippling [G]in this [Am]skin that I?m [G]in
[Am]You could wear my [G]shoes, [Am]I could have your [G]hair
[Am]And think that it was [G]fair
[Am]I?m rippling [G]in the [Am]skin that I?m [G]in
End on G
