Here's another jewel trascription - a little more complete.
I usually use a lot of chord substitutions & such when I play this,
this is just a very elemental version of what I play when I play this
song out. Remember the various D's (ex.Dsus), A's & B's that you can
play during this song to emphasise the words & changes.
Have fun . . . Ian . . .

Jewel - Standing Still

[INTRO:]  Bm   A   D   (x2)

[VERSE:]
Bm                  A                   D
Cutting through the darkest night are my two headlights
   Bm                                      A         D
Trying to keep it clear, but I’m losing it here to the twilight
    Bm                                          A       D
There’s a dead end to my left, there’s a burning bush to my right
       Bm           A         D
You aren’t in sight       you aren’t in sight
______________________________________________________
[CHORUS:]
G   Asus4   A          G  Asus4   A                        D
Do  you   want me,   like   I    want you or  am I standing still
  G                 Em7     A              D
Beneath the darkened sky, or am I standing still
        G               Em7    A           Bm
With the scenery flying by, or am I standing still
         G           Asus4   F#m       Bm   G        Asus4  A
Out of the corner of my eye,   was that you passing me by
__________________________________________________________
[VERSE:]
Bm                                   A                D
Mothers on the stoop, boys in souped-up coupes, on this hot summer night.
    Bm                               A                  D
Between fight and flight, is the blind man’s sight, and a choice that’s right.
Bm                             A                 D
I roll the window down, feel like I’m gonna drown, in this strange town.
       Bm          A         D
Feel broken down       I feel broken down
_______________________________________________________
[CHORUS:]
G   Asus4   A          G  Asus4   A                        D
Do  you   need me,   like   I    need you or  am I standing still
  G                 Em7     A              D
Beneath the darkened sky, or am I standing still
        G               Em7    A           Bm
With the scenery flying by, or am I standing still
         G           Asus4   F#m       Bm   G        Asus4  A
Out of the corner of my eye,   was that you passing me by

[N.C. -- I play Bm]
Sweet sorrow, is the call tomorrow
Sweet sorrow, is the call tomorrow
____________________________________________
[CHORUS:]
G   Asus4   A          G  Asus4   A                        D
Do  you   love me,   like   I    love you or  am I standing still
  G                 Em7     A              D
Beneath the darkened sky, or am I standing still
        G               Em7    A           Bm
With the scenery flying by, or am I standing still
         G           Asus4   F#m       Bm   G        Asus4  A
Out of the corner of my eye,   was that you passing me by
              Bm       G    A
Are you paaaaaaaaassing me by? (passing me by)
Do you want me? (passing me by)
Bm     G       A      Asus4   A
Do you need me, like I need you too?
      Bm   G      Asus4   A
And do you want me like I want you?
