            None of the other tabs had the correct chords, including that weird sounding chord, 
so I decided to make correct tab. The chord in question is an F#m7b5/C, which contains the notes
F#-A-C-E. I play it like so:

e) 5
B) 5
G) 4
D) x
A) 3
E) x

[Intro]
B - F#m7 - Dsus2 A/C# - Esus2
B - F#m7 - Dsus2 A/C# - F#m7b5/C



[Verse]
C#m7
Came in from a rainy thursday
E        F#sus4 F#
on the avenue
C#m7                               E       F#sus4 F#
thought I heard you talking softly
C#m7
I turned on the lights, the tv
E           F#sus4 F#
and the radio
C#m                               E     F#sus4 F#
still I can't escape the ghost of you



[Bridge]
C#m
What is happened to it all?
G#m7
Crazy, some say
D#7                       E
Where is the life that I recognize?
E
gone away


[Chorus]
B                         F#m7
But I won't cry for yesterday
                      Dsus2
there's an ordinary world
        A/C#          E
somehow I have to find
B                        F#m7
And as I try to make my way
                  Dsus2
to the ordinary world
        A/C#         F#m7b5/C
I will learn to survive

[Verse]
C#m7
Passion or coincidence
       E              F#7
Once prompted you to say
C#m7
"Pride will tear us both apart"
E       F#sus4 F#
         Well now
C#m7
pride's gone out the window
            E        F#sus4 F#
Cross the rooftops, run away
C#m7
Left me in the vacuum of my
E     F#7
heart

[Bridge]
C#m
What is happening to me?
G#m7
Crazy, some'd say
D#7                        E
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away

[Chorus]
B                         F#m7
But I won't cry for yesterday
                      Dsus2
there's an ordinary world
        A/C#          E
somehow I have to find
B                        F#m7
And as I try to make my way
                  Dsus2
to the ordinary world
        A/C#         E
I will learn to survive

[Solo]
B                     F#m7
Dsus2    A/C#         E
B                     F#m7
Dsus2    A/C#         F#m7b5/C

[Verse]
C#m7
Papers in the roadside
         E             F#
Tell of suffering and greed
C#m
Fear today, forgot tomorrow
E  F#sus4 F#
         Ooh
C#m7
Here besides the news of 
      E            F#           
holy war and holy need
C#m
Ours is just a little sorrowed
E    F#
talk

[Chorus]
B                         F#m7
And I won't cry for yesterday
                      Dsus2
there's an ordinary world
        A/C#          E
somehow I have to find
B                        F#m7
And as I try to make my way
                  Dsus2
to the ordinary world
        A/C#         E
I will learn to survive

(Repeat Chorus pattern to fade)
Every one
Is my world, (I will learn to survive)
Any one
Is my world, (I will learn to survive)
Any one
Is my world
Every one
Is my world

 
The chord patterns are similar throughout. However, that F#m7b5/C returns again at the end of the 
guitar theme in the middle of the song. Otherwise it is replaced by an Esus2 as in
the first half of the intro.
