Tender Torture Chords

(ver. 1)
Islands
This song is played using just power chords. The only chord that is not in 
standard power chord finger form is what i think is called the Bmaj7 so here it is:
  
Bmaj7:
e--2----
B--4----
G--2----
D--4----
A--2----
E--2----

F#                               B
I'll be your wave carrying you to shore. 
          F#
And if your ribs are peeking through your fur,
     B 
I'll feed you some more. 

  F#
I rode out of the city,
     B 
without you in my arms. 
          F#
Under the moonglow, 
                
i was a windblown, cast-down, 
B
carved out watermelon. 
C# 
Without you in my arms 
B                   F#
Without you in my arms. 

F#                  Bbm
And i've seen some great things, 
                       Bmaj7
But i dont want to see anything 
              F#
If i cant see you.
F#               Bbm 
Kicked open a coconut,
                          Bmaj7 
Couldve shared it with anyone 
                                F#
But i wanted to share it with you. 
   C#         B       F#
oooooh, oooooh. 
F#             B
I'll be your strings;
           F#        
If you pluck them, 
B
I'll sing for you. 
              F#
And if your hands are feeling tender, 
                B
I'll take them in my own and make them better. 
   F#
I rose out of the water, 
       B          
I can hold my breath for only so long. 
   F#
I push past the breeze from the palm trees,
     B 
I'm coming towards you. 
             C#
I've got to have you in my arms, 
            B                  F#
I'm gonna have you in my arms. 

                    Bbm
And i've seen some great things, 
                        Bmaj7
But i dont want to see anything 
              F#
If i cant see you. 
              Bbm
Kicked open a coconut, 
                        Bmaj7
Could've shared it with anyone, 
                                F#
But i wanted to share it with you.

     C#            B      F#
ooooooh,, oooohhhhh 

C#                   B         F#
You send me over in tender torture. 
C#                   B              F#
And when it's over, it's tender torture.
