On verse 1 you can repeat the opening solo or play it the easier way as she does live, because there is another  
guitar repeating the solo.

       I   don't mind A  lit--tle  pa---in  

So it's the same for the following parts:   

It?s a short fucking movie man  
I know I?m going to try and take it slow  
Bottled water, called a drought  
Come on  
What?s that about?  
Keep me sick to make me well  
Come on, what the hell

     I   got up  in  the world to-day,    wondered   who it  was I  could save who do you think you are?  
                                                                                               just a   
                                                                               girl...    play  guitar  

I hope verse two is not too confusing, but I tried to stick the time according to the lyrics, as is famous  
Marling style. I suggest that the banging up until '...was I could' to focus on the 3rd string(g).   

verse 2  
I think I could get away with saying only half what I say  
No I can?t give you up  
No I?m not gonna stop  

Chorus is kind of like verse 1, then a lot of open strings banging.

   They know, but they?ll never know why  
   They know, but they?ll never know why  

So, the singing melody in verse 4 is different from the melody in verse 2, but I'm not really sure if she  
she changes a lot the way she plays from verse 2, so down here I'll only put the melody for verse 4. Feel free  
to comment or try to play along to verse 2.  

verse 4                                  OR                                           AND   verse 4 part2  
d|-------------------------------------|    d|--------------------------------------|     d|--------------|  
b|---8---5---3-------8---5---3---5---3-|    b|---8---5---3-------8---5---3---5---3--|     b|--------------|  
g|---------------5---------------------|    g|---------------5----------------------|     g|---0---0---0--|  
D|-------------------------------------|    D|---5---2---0-------5---2---0---2---0--|     D|---0---0---0--|  
G|-------------------------------------|    G|---------------5----------------------|     G|---2---9---7--|  
D|-------------------------------------|    D|--------------------------------------|     D|---2---9---7--|  

So its:  
verse 4: I don?t know what we?re afraid of  
verse 4 part2: no, no I don't mind  
verse 4 part2: oh, no I don't mind  
verse 4: If I fall in love to the sound of   
verse 4 part2: birds on the wing   
verse 4 part2: then kiss, I'm laughing  

I hope you get the gist by now.  

Chorus  
They know, but they?ll never know why  
They know, but they?ll never know why  
They know that I loved you but they don?t know why  
They know that I loved you but they?ll never know why  

It's kicking off -> verse 1* + verse 1²   

It's good doing slide on verse 1*   

I think that's about all I have to say about this song, I'm curious of hearing the opinions.
