Put tabs

I've never really tried to tab out a song before, so bear that in mind.
Feel free to fill in the ?.
I'm basing this tab of his live performance.

Capo on 2nd fret (chords relative to the capo)
Standard Tuning 

Intro thing:
Just a C chord, but don't let it ring. After striking the
chord, just lift your finger up enough to mute the strings 
and then strike the chord again. Listen to the song for strumming
pattern. After a few of these, it's a little rundown thing:

E--------------
A--------1-----
D--------0-----
G--------2-----
B--0h2---3-----
e--------------

You can either hammer-on that second fret, or pick it.
Sounds better with a hammer-on.



Chords:
C: x32010
G: 320033
Am: x02210
E: 022100
F: 133211 

C                 G
Early light that burns my eyes,
  Am                E
A minute more the sun will rise
     F                     C                ?
And paint the bright blue sky with yellow gold
C               G        
I'll be dead asleep by then,
Am                E 
Shut up in this box again
  ?           ?
Until it's gone
 ?             ?
Outside I can hear it
?                   ?                ?                  ?
Birds are singing, bees are buzzing, sun shines overhead
?                ?             ?                ?
I'd be there to see it but I can't get out of bed
?                   ?                ?                ? 
Since the day you left the weather always feels this way
?         ??          ??
One more blue sunny day

C                G
Looking for an easy mark
  Am                 E
I hit the Denny's after dark
    F                C                ?
To take a lonely waitress home to drink,
C                   G
She's sincere, but halfway through
  Am                E
I find I'm wishing she was you
    ?            ?
My blood goes cold
  ?           ?
I guess this date is over
?              ?             ?          ?
Several hours later I'm the only one awake
?                      ?                ?            ?
All these streets are empty, it's just me and my mistake
?               ?                ?                   ?
One by one the stars go out as black sky turns to gray
?         ? ?        ??
One more blue sunny day

?                        ?
Sometimes I see how long I can wait
?                        ?
Tempting disaster by my garden gate
?                        ?
My trembling hand on the cellar door
?              ?       ?              ?          ?
Trying not to think of what it is I'm waiting for


*Interlude*

C                 G
All at once I've had enough
   Am              E
As if I'm made of sterner stuff
  F                 C               ?
I take a breath and open up the door
C                    G
Dawn breaks hard and falls on me
    Am              E
For just one moment I can see
     ?         ?
The pale blue sky
?           ?
I close my eyes because
?               ?          ?                            ?
The world's so bright and beautiful I have to look away
?                  ?          ?               ?
Braced against the beauty of another perfect day
?          ?              ?                ?
As I go to pieces and the breeze blows me away
?         ??         ??
