Here is the most I could get out of how to play the guitar parts in this song.
If you want a huge hint on how to play this, the entire song uses the exact same
chord arrangement as the Dandy Warhols song 'Bohemian Like You', just much slower.
Chords:
B 7 9 9 x x x
D x 5 7 7 x x
A 5 7 7 x x x
E x 7 9 9 x x
This is the main chord arrangement, which is basically straightfoward barre chords during the verses. B D A E e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|-------------------7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------------------9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-------|D|--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-------|A|--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------|E|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5------------------------|
The chorus uses a more free strumming approach, with only six or so sturms for each chord instead of eight. B D A E e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|-------------------7--7-7--7-7-7---------------------9--9-9--9-9-9---------|D|--9--9-9--9-9-9----7--7-7--7-7-7----7-7--7-7--7-7----9--9-9--9-9-9---------|A|--9--9-9--9-9-9----5--5-5--5-5-5----7-7--7-7--7-7----7--7-7--7-7-7---------|E|--7--7-7--7-7-7---------------------5-5--5-5--5-5--------------------------|
Here is the bridge arrangement, also with an easy strum to it: D A Ee|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7-7-7-7---------------------9-9-9-9-9-9-9---------|D|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7-7-7-7----9-9-9-9-9-9-9---------|A|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5----5-5-5-5-5-5-5----7-7-7-7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7-7-7-7---------|E|------------------------------------5-5-5-5-5-5-5--------------------------|
Here is the melody played at the beginning and during the choruses in the song:e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|--7--9--10(h)------------9--10--9-------9--10--9-------9--10--9------------|G|----------------------9---------------9--------------9---------------------|D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Verse One:
B D A E
I was crying over you
I am smiling I think of you
Where your gardens have no walls
Breathe in the air if you care, you compare, don't say farewell
Chorus One:
B D A E
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Verse Two:
B D A E
I was crying over you
I am smiling I think of you
Misty mornings and water falls
Breathe in the air if you care, you compare, don't say farewell
Chorus Two:
B D A E
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Bridge:
D A E
Virtuous sensibility
Escape velocity
Chorus Three:
B D A E
And nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Nothing can compare
To when you roll the dice and you swear your love's for me
Breathe in the air if you care, you compare, don't say farewell
Nothing
