This is one of my all time favorite Phoenix songs, took me quite a while to figure out the guitar part, I just remember I always wanted to play this song but there was no correct tabs online, so I just listen and watched so many phoenix acoustic live videos to figure out. It is not completely identical to the song, but sounds alright to me.
So here's the tab, I placed my capos on the 2nd fret, for the album version its on the 5th fret, for some of phoenix's live acoustic versions are 4th fret.

Lyrics:
Dally used to come from me
Go on mister, get well
Daddy wasn't thinking that you're no good
Don't worry 'cause you're not the kind to kiss and tell
Dally and cherry trees
I don't recall them anyway
So long as no one here is gonna wear out
To which isn't the same
Look what you wasted
When the lights are coming out
And I come down in your room
Our daily compromise, it is
Written in your signed armistice
And when the lights are coming out
And I come down in your room
Well well the sign is always
Here is your signed armistice
It's time to fall, oh, not to heat it up
The question is plain as a propeller
In the middle of the course
When ambitions are low
Head on close, hang on before you lose control
We ought to go
And look how to rip it off
December for message on the lips
Some love is, no, it ain't gonna wear out
To which is all the same
One of us is wasted
When the lights are coming out
And I come down in your room
Our daily compromise, it is
Written in your signed armistice
And when the lights are coming out
And I come down in your room
Well well the sign is always
Here is your signed armistice
Fallin' out, he's in a rush, fallin' out, he's goin in, fallin out, he's in a rush
Keep your promises
Fallin' out, he's in a rush, fallin' out, he's goin in, fallin out he's in a rush
Fallin' out he's always,
Fallin' out, he's in a rush
Keep your promises
Fallin' out, he's in a rush,
Fallin' out, he's always..
sounds terrific to me and you've adapted the chord changes superbly....I can tell you are a very serious---and talented---musician. keep it up!
