Verse

  C#m       B                  A
     Only a fool would step away 
from it
         C#m     B          
     The song so sweet on the 
  A       D
siren's lips
     C#m            B             
     How do you lie straight with 
  A       E
a viper's tongue?

There's a little run after 'tongue' 
which is the same as the last five 
notes in the intro

For the lines with A E/G# F#m and E 
they are picked, shown just below

  A           E/G#        F#m     E
     I'm at a loss to explain

  A           E/G#     F#m        
     Just how easy you found me to 
 E
replace
  C#m             B              
     Now that the naked truth is 
A            E
out on display

Chorus

                      B            
     Could you explain, why did you
 C#m
 gravitate?
   A                   E
     Was something about to break?
   B               C#m
     Take what you need to take
   A             E
     Just silently walk away
   A               E            B
     How could you be so reckless?
                       A         
     Could you explain, how could 
     E            B
you be so reckless?

The second verse and chorus are 
pretty much the same as the first
