Great song, I wonder why it hasn't been posted before..
This tab has only guitar 1 (Alec Ounsworth). Guitar 2 is playing something else, which
actually makes it sound like there are 4 chords in the verses instead of just D and G.
I know there are some errors and I don't think all the chords are right
(e.g. the first bridge). This should get you started anyway.
I transcribed this from the performance in Conan O'Brien show 12/16/2005.

verse 1:
D D G G
Blue, you radiant blue I don't know how you can stand next to me
You you talk like a noose and only confuse my perplexity
Bm A Asus4 A
Now that I'm so sad and not quite right
G A
I could dance all night
Asus4 A D G D G
I could dance all night
verse 2:
Shake your rattle-snake skin and become a part of society
Wait on down the highway to see how far I'll come a-run a-run run running
All that we have salvaged from the fire
was a waste of time
What a waste of time
Bm, A Asus4 A, G, A Asus4 A
Bridge 1 (pick):
Dsus2
Bmaj Gmaj
Should I trust all the rust that's on TV (should I trust all the rust that's on TV)
Bmaj Gmaj
I guess with some distase I disagree (with some distase I disagree)
Bmaj
With quite a fashionable dispassion for the dispossessed under-stressed (aah, ooaah)
Gmaj
Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme (aah, aah)
Amaj Gmaj
And I don't care if you don't like or just don't see that
Verse 3:
D2 D2 G2 G2
Now that we've fattened the cow and set out to plow unknown enemies
D2
"Wow!" Shouts the startled crowd "How now did you see what I did see?"
Bm A Asus4 A
The ravaged cabbage drifts on dark red skies
G A
And it looks so nice
Asus4 A D G D G
Gee it looks so nice
Bridge 2 (pick):
Bmaj Gmaj
Shout just let it on out confusion becomes a philosophy
Down we're reaching the town where we don't have to stand around and look over our shoulders
(strum:)
Bm2 A2
Hell, I never knew was what we made it lets just take it slow
D
in this home on ice
G
in this home on ice
D
in this home on ice
G
in this home on-iiiieeee
