Tab by Jason Molle
Great song by a great Australian band!
Must credit Wes Chia and Leo Tong for tabbing this originally.
This is my take on it, certainly not perfect but works for me. Happy to be corrected!

[Intro]
N.C.
A A6 Bdim/F Fm7/Fm7b5A/Fm7
[Verse]
A A6 Bdim/F**
Polyserena, I'm staving to feed you,
Fm7
I'll be back from what I've been to.
A A6* A6 Bdim/F**
Not sad, not crying,
Fmaj7 Fm7*
in the moments of your hiding,
C B
You'd swear that I was screaming.
[Verse 2]
A A6 Bdim/F**
Polyserena, since your leaving,
Fmaj7
lit rooms are darkly silent.
A A6* A6 Bdim/F**
right now I am standing right here
Fmaj7 Fm7*
between whispers of your violence
C B
You'd swear that I'm believing.
[Chorus]
C D
Poly' you decadent deceiver,
Am G#m C D
In the mirror you don't reflect but I feel your hot breath
Fmaj7
from the coals of the fires of all that's left.
[Verse 3]
A A6 Bdim/F**
Polyserena, it's never over.
Fmaj7
It's glimmering in the windows,
A A6* A6 Bdim/F**
of the corridors of gold
Fmaj7 Fm7*
not walking backwards any more.
C B
for Serena you know all.
[Chorus]
C D
Poly' you decadent deceiver,
Am G#m C D
In the mirror you don't reflect but I feel your hot breath
Fmaj7
from the coals of the fires of all that's left.

[Bridge]
A7
Colours flood into patterns
Dm
churn and twist around what matters.
A Em7* Bdim/F
Where's a love to believe, to bleed to drink to?

Through your brindled smile poly I still trust you.
