This is my first tab, I figured it out by listening to this vid:

Common time; Key of
(listen to the track for chord changes, it s actually quite apparent when they do)
Intro: | | | | (and repeat once)
Verse:
I built a man made out of bricks
and lived inside his chest
I beat my hands against the walls
To make a heart beat in his breast
I smashed my fist against his ribs
to suck the air inside
and swing by swing and blow by blow
I brought that man to life (hold G for one more bar)
Intro again (omit the Dm and G though)
| | (repeat)
Verse II: (arpeggiated)
I built a man and cut his skin
and lived inside his heart
I pumped it with my fingertips
and loved it from the start
And with every beat I gave him
a heart beat of my own
and then I filled his veins
with the blood I had
Til his blo-oh-oh-oh-od (x 3)
Was my oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohn
Oh, I d build you up,
( )
but we re not made of the same stuff,
And even though I knocked you down,
( )
you re so much stronger than me (repeat this time with mute)
Well, I would build you up,
but we re not made of the same stuff,
And even though I knocked you down,
(hold for two bars)
you re so much stronger
