The whole song (Except for the resolving chord, which I think was a

miscommunication on stage)
is E and A with a B as passing chord.
If you want the accompaniment, it's just 2nd 3rd 4th strings playing 5,6,6

and 5,6,7

frets for the E and A respectively

[Verse]
E A
I've been contemplating, suicide
E A
But it really doesn't, suit my style,
E A
So I think I'll just act, bored instead
E A
And contain the blood I would've shed
E A
She makes me feel so ill at ease
E A
My heart is really on it's knees
E A
But I keep a poker face so well
E A
That even mother couldn't tell

[Chorus]

(That my)
E
baby's so vain that she is
A
almost a mirror, And the
E
sound of her name, sends a
A
permanent shiver, down my
E
Spiii-yi-yiiii-yi-yiiii-yi-yiyiyi

[Verse]
E A
I keep her photograph against my heart
E A
For in my life she plays a starring part
E A
All alcohol and cigarettes
E A
I've got no use for, cheap regrets
E A
She makes me feel so, ill at ease
E A
My heart is really on it's knees
E A
But I keep a poker face so well
