Really nice track, make sure you listen to it for strumming patterns, it's what makes the song.
All of the chords used are in the Intro tab apart from A, used only in the chorus
A: 5-7-7-6-5-5
Not 100% on the C1-3 chords but they sound okay, any improvements let me know!

Ellie Alice and me
C#m G#m F#m
On the train, under the channel
C1 C2 C3
Come on, come on and trade me seats
C#m G#m F#m
Cause I can't sit facing backwards
E G#m F#m
She reads a dying magazine
E G#m F#m
And I'm so tired I can't sleep
[Chorus]
A G#m F#m
On the other side, will I be reminded?
A G#m F#m
Paid in youth
A G#m F#m
Counting up the cost for the time rewinded
A G#m F#m
Paid in youth

And they'll be combing the beach
C#m G#m F#m
But we move like shadows in the fog
C1 C2 C3
I scratch the ink off the receipts
C#m G#m F#m
Does she know that I'm already gone?
E G#m F#m
I don't know why I was nervous
E G#m F#m
I only want to deserve it
[Chorus]
A G#m F#m
On the other side, will I be reminded?
A G#m F#m
Paid in youth
A G#m F#m
Counting up the cost for the time rewinded
