Tabbed by: djweeks13
One of my favorite Blind Pilot songs and I haven't found an accurate, complete tab, so here goes.
Standard Tuning
Capo V | All chords relative to capo
The | signifies the end of every two-bar phrase
C 032010
E* 032100 (E with the flat 6)
Fmaj7 133210 (If I write "F" I mean Fmaj7, I just didn't have room to write it out.)
G 320003
E 022100
On the first C chord of the verses, he often starts with the 4th (D) string open and hammers on the second fret

C E* F G C
Verse
C E*
The thrill here is quicker than you'd think
The way in some jet-lagged bar they're [Fmaj7]pouring the wine
From over their heads then [C]sit back down again[G]
C E*
Four times is once too much for luck
And that's how many times the [Fmaj7]clock struck
I wandered [C]home, saying your name[G]

[Bb7] [C]
Verse
C E*
The arches here were built 'cause they don't fall
The catedrals to make you [Fmaj7]feel small
You might [C]find your small [G]soul
C E*
Leave the preaching to the president
The crowd cheers, his eyes get wet
I'm [Fmaj7]full as it is, I'm full as it is
So [C]don't feed me more[G]
Chorus
[E]You'll be having my [Fmaj7]head, big as a birth[C]day[G]
'Cause [E]I left all my [Fmaj7]doubts on the air[C]plane[G]
[Bb7]I didn't know, I didn't know I'm [C]not in contr[G]ol
[Bb7]I didn't know, I'm not invincib[C]le

C E* F G C
Verse
C E*
And maybe some things are better left unsaid
But if you wanted to test that [Fmaj7]out, well, yeah, I guess you [C]couldn't have said[G]
C E*
But there were nights in bars that I recall
Your breath was courage laced with [Fmaj7]alcohol
You leaned i[C]n and s[G]aid
Chorus
[E]"Make music with the [Fmaj7]chatter in here,[C] [G]
[E]And whisper all the n[Fmaj7]otes in my ears.[C]"[G]

[Bb7]I didn't know, I didn't know what I'd[C] done

[C] [F] [Bb7] [C]
Verse
C E*
The lights here are softer than you'd think
The dim lit peacocks in the tre[Fmaj7]es,
They're hiding their eyes and their [C]beauty, like [G]me
C E*
But if my eyes were on my back
I know what I'd be looking [Fmaj7]at
Through every shade of [C]brown and g[G]reen
Outro
[Bb7]I didn't know, I didn't know it [C]was nothing [G]new
[Bb7]I didn't know, I didn't know it was [C]you
