hey.. just looking through what other people have tabbed this song, and it 
is nearly right! just a few minor corrections i have added..
you can either de-tune your guitar down 1/2 step or just play the chords i 
have written. its right i promise you! try playing a long with the Cd to 
work out the chord changes and the rhythm otherwise everything you need to 
know is here:
Enjoy!

Verse 1

Eb              Bb       Cm           Gm
Do you have the time..

Ab                Eb                Bb
About nothing..

Eb          Bb       Cm        Gm
I am one of those..

Sometimes i give..

Ab           Bb                   Eb
Sometimes my mind..

Ab                  Bb
It all keeps..

Eb          Db       Cm
I think..  - stop palm muting!

Ab        Bb               Eb
Am i just paranoid..
