Chord voicings for chorus and how to play the melody within chords
F*       xx321x
Fmaj7    xx3210 *
F6       xx323x *
Cmaj7/E  02201x
Fmaj7/A  x02211 *
Asus2/B  x2220x
Am/C     x3221x
* Can play single notes E and D to give Fmaj7 and F6, after playing F*.
  Similarly, play high F note to give Fmaj7/A, then play E to go back to Am.
(Cmaj7/E and Em 02200x are kind of interchangeable as melody notes B and C
are played, but the vocal is on C where I've put Cmaj7/E and on B for Em.)
Verse 1 is similar to the chorus, but has a different melody over the F chords
to begin with.  To summarise:
Melody over Am is F, E, A
Melody over F is E, D, A except for the first half of Verse 1 where it's also F, E, A

The lengths that I will go to

I'm choosing my confessions
F            G              Dsus2
  Trying to keep an eye on you
       A                       F6
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool

I think I thought I saw you try
    F*    Fmaj7 F6   F    Em
But that was just a dream
 Am  Fmaj7/A Am  Asus2/B Am/C
Try, cry,      why
  F*     Fmaj7 F6   F   Em  Am Fmaj7/A Am  G
I think I thought I saw you try

[Bridge]
          A
Consider this
   Fsus2
Consider this
    G6               Dsus2
The hint of the century
          A
Consider this
    Fsus2
The slip that brought me
 G6              Dsus2
To my knees failed
        A               F6
What if all these fantasies
    G6           Dsus4
Come  flailing around
         A
Now I've said
F6                 G6
Now I've said too much

[Chorus/Ending]
  N.C.                         F*  Fmaj7 F6
