Capo I - if you don't have a capo...tune up? But that might break your strings.
Instead, if you don't have a capo, it might be hard but just barre the 1st fret.

Lyric's arent exact, oh well.
(repeat riff A for the next lines)
  Turning over TV stations situations running through my head...
  Looking back through time you know it's clear that i've been blind i've been a fool...
  To open up my heart to all that jealousy that bitterness that ridicule...

  Saturday i'm running wild all the lights are changing green to red...
  Moving through the crowd i'm pushing chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream...
  Only wish that you were here you know i'm seeing it so clear i've been afraid...
  To tell you how I really feel admit to some of those bad mistakes I made...

(riff A with this verse)
Sunday afternoon and all the lights of London fade from red to blue     
I’m kicking through the autumn leaves and wondering where it is you’re going to
Turning back for home you know I’m feeling so alone I can’t believe 
And climbing up the stair I turn around to see you smiling there in front of me

After that, play the chorus one more time.
