I think these are pretty accurate chords. To play it like the Fiona track, pay attention
to inversions. Enjoy!
[Note: Fdim7/Db can also be thought of as Db7(add9)]

Fiona Apple - Pale September
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
Pale September, I wore the time like a dress that year
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
But as the embers of the summer lost their breath and disappeared
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
My heart went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within
Fdim7 Fdim7/Db
But then he rose, brilliant as the moon in full
Fdim7 Fdim7/Db
And sank in the burrows of my keep
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Gb
Absus4 Ebm7
And all my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Absus4 Gb
Absus4 Ebm7
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep
Cdim
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
He goes along just as a water lily
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
Gentle on the surface of his thoughts his body floats
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
Unweighed down by passion or intensity
Ab6 Cdim Ab6 Cdim
Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts
Fdim7 Fdim7/Db
And he finds a home in me
Fdim7 Fdim7/Db
For what misfortune sows, he knows my touch will reap
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Gb
Absus4 Ebm7
And all my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Absus4 Gb
Absus4 Ebm7
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep
Fdim7 Fdim7/Db Fdim7 Fdim7/Db
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Gb Absus4 Ebm7
All my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Absus4 Gb
Absus4 Ebm7
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Gb Absus4
Ebm7
All my armor falling down, in a pile at my feet
Gb Absus4 Ebm7 Absus4 Gb
Absus4 Ebm7
And my winter giving way to warm, as I'm singing him to sleep
Gb Absus4 Ebm7... (repeat to the end)
