This sounds pretty accurate to me.
 
 
(Standard tuning)
 
CAPO 1
------
Intro: F , C , G , Am.
 
 
                      F
Is there anyone that fails
                      C
Is there anyone that falls
                      G
Am I the only one in church today
           Am
feeling so small
 
                          F
Cause when i take a look around
                    C
Everybody seems so strong
                       G
I know they'll soon discover 
             Am
That i don't belong
 
                 F
So i tuck it all away,
                   C
Like everything's okay
                           G
If i make them all believe it
                      Am
Maybe i'll believe it too
 
                  F
So with a painted grin
                C
I play the part again
                     G
So everyone will see me
                    Am
the way that i see them

Chorus
-------
                        F
Are we happy plastic people
                        C
Under shiny plastic steeples
                          G
with walls around our weakness
                       Am
and smiles to hide our pain
 
                        F
But if the invitation's open
                                C
to every heart that has been broken
                            G
maybe then we close the curtain
                           F (Play once)
on our stained glass masquerade
 
-------------------------------
                           F
Is there anyone who's been there
                       C
Are there any hands to raise
                        G
Am i the only one who's traded 
                   Am
in the altar for a stage
 
                          F
The performance is convincing
                      C
we know every line by heart
                         G
only when no one is watching
                     Am
can we really fall apart
 
                     F
But would it set me free
                      C
if i dared to let you see
                        G
the truth behind the person
                       Am
That you imagine me to be
 
                   F
Would your arms be open
                   C
or would you walk away
                   G
would the love of Jesus
                       Am
be enough to make you stay

Chorus x2
-------
                        F
Are we happy plastic people
                        C
Under shiny plastic steeples
                          G
with walls around our weakness
                       Am
and smiles to hide our pain
 
                        F
But if the invitation's open
                                C
to every heart that has been broken
                            G
maybe then we close the curtain
                           F (Play once)
on our stained glass masquerade
 
-------------------------------
                      F
Is there anyone that fails
                      C
Is there anyone that falls
                      G
Am I the only one in church today
           Am
feeling so small

Dude this tab is perfect. All it needs is the strumming pattern. The chord placement is spot on.

To me, when playing along with the track, the last Am in each verse that leads into the chorus sounds like something else might fit better. I haven't figured out what yet, but take a look at it maybe?
