Tuning: regular, capo 3rd

So many got it twisted, including myself, so I asked da man himself
pelicanmouse on his YouTube account a few years back. I couldn't get
the last chord so he told me it was just an open G with added pinkie
on the 5th fret. Enjoy...

Basic song structure...

     D        Em       Bm       Gadd9      D        C        Bm       Gadd9
e|---2--2-2---0--0-0---2--2-2---5--5-5-----2--2-2---0--0-0---2--2-2---5--5-5-----|
B|---3--3-3---0--0-0---3--3-3---0--0-0-----3--3-3---1--1-1---3--3-3---0--0-0-----|
G|---2--2-2---0--0-0---4--4-4---0--0-0-----2--2-2---0--0-0---4--4-4---0--0-0-----|
D|---0--0-0---2--2-2---4--4-4---0--0-0-----0--0-0---2--2-2---4--4-4---0--0-0-----|
A|------------2--2-2---2--2-2---2--2-2--------------3--3-3---2--2-2---2--2-2-----|
E|------------0--0-0------------3--3-3--------------3--3-3------------3--3-3-----|

Embellishments... (maybe!) these are my take on it, but Gadd9 riff he uses a lot.
A few YouTube live vids of this classic show these chords + also a great version 
with Chris Brokaw on 2nd gtr.

     Dsus2       Em                c               Bm7            Gadd9 
e|------0------------0h2p0---alt/---------------/-----------------5--5-----------|
B|-----3-3----------0-----0-----/-----1-1h3p1---/-----3-3h5p3-----0--------------|
G|----2---2--------0-------0----/----0-------0--/----2-------2----0--------------|
D|---0-----0------2-------------/---2---------2-/---4---------4---0-------0h2p0--|
A|------------------------------/--3------------/--2--------------2----0h2-------|
E|---------------0--------------/---------------/-----------------3--------------|

& sometimes there's hammer-on/pull-offs on the D, & an add9 on the Em used a lot
to keep the top E string F# note ringing, & also sometimes the C & Bm switch to
Cmaj7 & Bm7...

     D       Em(add9)          Cmaj7    Bm7

She's coming over, We'll go out walking,
Make a call on the way.

She's in the phone booth, I'm looking in.
There comes a smile on her face.

There's still some the same stuff we got yesterday.
There's still some the same stuff we got yesterday, Yeah.

I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.
I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.
I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.

So we take off out Fiona's door, Walk until it's light outside,
Like before when we were on the phone.

We have to laugh to look at each other.
We have to laugh 'cause we're not alone.

As the cars fly up King St. It's enough to startle us,
It's enough to startle us

I love my drug buddy. My drug, my drug buddy.
I love my drug buddy. My drug, my drug buddy.
