Here you have the tabs and chords of the song, :) It's great. The intro's missing that
amazing thing Hugh does with his finger. I can notice what he does on the other parts,
that last thing... Gee, I'm not god. Anyway, here it is.
During the whole song, the chords are
F#m: 222442
D: 232000 or 232xxx -it's the same thing.
A: 022200
A/G#: 022204 or 022004 -also, the same thing. Perhaps the first one's more complicated.

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_kooks/kids_tab_ver_5.html ]
F#m D
You were a child
A A/G#
Crawling on your knees toward him
F#m D
Making mama so proud
A A/G# F#m D
But your voice is too loud
A A/G# (and so..)
We like to watch you laughing
Picking insects off of plants
Don't think of consequences
(F#m D A A/G#)
Control yourself
Take only what you need from them
A family of trees wanting to be haunted
Control yourself
Take only what you need from them
(F#m D A A/G#)
The water is warm
But it’s sending me shivers
A baby is born
Crying out for attention
Memories fade
Like looking through a fogged mirror
Decisions too
Decisions are made
Decisions are made and not bought
Would've hurt at all
(F#m D A A/G#)
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from them,
A family of trees wanting to be haunted.
Control yourself,
Take only what you need from them.

And the last part I don't know how it goes.
Then again to the chorus.
(F#m D A A/G#)
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from them,
A family of trees wanting to be haunted.
Control yourself,
Take only what you need from them.
Goes TWICE.
That's it, hope you like it :)
