Goodness me, it's a while since I played that one. No tab, but here's the
words and chords as best as I can remember them. (Any corrections most
gratefully accepted).

NB: the F#m and Em marked with a '*' - I'm almost sure that I used to
play a Bm for these two chords, but the F#m and Em sound better just
now. (I have a guitar with me, but not the record). You might like to
stick Bm in there if it sounds better for you.

If you are playing the song in A, the marked chords should indeed be Bm.
Actually, though, on the album, the song is played in B-flat.
(Someone's playing a piano on the track, so it's really not too
surprising.)
Here are the chords of the song, in Bb:

Between the chorus and the next verse is a guitar figure backed by the
piano playing in F:
|-----13-----------11----------10---------8|
|------------------------------------------|
|12/14--------10/12--------8/10--------6/8-|
|------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------|
Which resolves to Bb at the start of the verse.
