This is pretty close, the only part I am not sure about is the chord runs after
the second and fourth lines in the chorus.

Capo 1
A E
I caught you caterwauling, giving grief
F#m C#m
Thought you were cannonballing after me
G# F#m G# A B
Now that your actions speak for themselves
C#m
And wished you well
A E
But you're a mirror I cannot avoid
F#m C#m
Strung out and jittery and paranoid
G# F#m G# A B
A leaky battery that can't keep charged
F#m A B
Get in the car
E C#m
And say what you mean
A B E F#m
Explain yourself to me
C#m B C#m-A-B
and I'll try not to judge you more than you would
E C#m A B E F#m
Let me help, I promise not to tell
C#m B G#-B-C#m-G#-A
Like anyone's asking or anyone should
Break: (Same strum pattern as verse)
A, E, F#m, C#m, G# F#m-G#-A, B, C#m
A E
First time I met you I was full of fear
F#m C#m
Knew that eventually you'd disappear
G# F#m G# A B
Just when I needed you to burn to smoke
F#m A B
And off you go
E C#m A B E F#m
Just come back and peel away the mess
C#m B C#m-A-B
Lay here beside me and open your eyes
E C#m A B E F#m
Take it back your dignity attacked
C#m B G#-B-C#m-G#-A
Turn back to the person you tried to let die
A E
I caught you nesting with your antelope
F#m C#m
Glassy eyes from kissing poison frogs
G# F#m G# A B
Becoming infinite against his couch
F#m A B
Open your mouth
E C#m A B E F#m
and say the words you used to wish you heard
C#m B C#m-A-B
Back when you focused enough to be good
E C#m A B E F#m
And if you're gone, an endless false alarm
C#m B G#-B-C#m-G#-A
Just remember I loved you as long as I could
Outro: (Same strum pattern as verse)
A, E, F#m, C#m, G# F#m-G#-A, B, C#m
