The main parts of the song jump between two/three chords, but the chorus plays a few different notes...
Using Jack in Water's live recording (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rey-BbfyrLI), I came up with this!

[Verse 1]
C*
If somebody was to write us down
G*
We’d be a brightly coloured novel
Filled with pictures and with sound
C*
Whether it be a hard back or a soft back
G*
We’d be definitely bound with heart
[Verse 2]
C*
And if Shakespeare was our narrator
He would have to make up words
G*
All adjectives and similes
C* G*
That had never before been heard by humans, by humans
[Verse 3]
C*
A love story bound by happiness
An adventure in the clouds
G*
Filled with rhyming verse and speaking birds
A story about how
C*
Two humans fall together
Through a sequence of events
G*
And one of them is selfless and the other makes the bed
C* G*
They encompass all the sonnets, their a reason to fear death
[Chorus 1]
G
Either the gods all adore us
Am7
They shoot happiness from above
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G
We should probably just fall in love
[Break]
C* C* C* C*(C/G) G* G* G* G*(C/G)
[Verse 4]
C*
And if our story was a film
It would definitely be
G*
A film directed by Tim Burton
With magic and mystery
1*
We'd be that bit in the English patient
Where Ralph is brought down to his knees
G*
Or a whole list of happy endings
C* G*
But this ones endless and its free, for us to decide
[Verse 5]
C*
We’d be an independent love film
We’d be critically acclaimed
G*
It would be happy and be awkward
With no sad twist at the end
C*
A montage of adventures
Between a boy and between a girl
G*
We'd meet mythical dark creatures
C* G*
Travel all around the world, whenever we wanted to
[Chorus 2]
G
Either the gods all adore us
Am7
They shoot happiness from above
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G
We should probably just fall...
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G
We should probably just fall...
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G C
We should probably just fall in love
