B/F#                          A                               E            E 
two jumps in a week i bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy.
B/F#                       A                              E                E 
flying on your motorcycle. watching all the ground beneath you drop.
      B/F#                           A                        E            E 
you'd kill yourself for recognition. kill yourself to never ever stop.
    B/F#                         A                         E               E 
you broke another mirror. you're turning into something you are not.

drying up in conversation you will be the one who cannot talk.
B/F#                             A                                    E     E
all your insides fall to pieces. you just sit there wishing you could still make love.

B/F#                                      A                             E   E

HIGH AND DRY:

i noticed there are some lines wrong:

        B/F#                         A     E                        E
it's the best thing that you ever had.  the best thing that you ever ever had.
         B/F#                         A    E                           E
it's the best thing that you ever had. the best thing that you had has gone away.

While the right chords here are the followings:

       B/F#                                        A                                         E            E          

 it's the best thing that you ever had.  the best thing that you ever ever had.

       B/F#                                        A                                              E            E

it's the best thing that you ever had. the best thing that you had has gone away.
         

Then, along all the song, the second E is actually an A/E (04x200), except before the chorus when it's Esus4  ("...into something (E) you are (Esus4) not..). Try also to change the B/F# into a F#11-.
