This is a great, great song. One of those that you wish had another verse and 
chorus but at the same time you love how short and sweet it is. 

Just hit the base note of each chord for all the verses. On the Pre-chorus-type 
parts start strumming and strum loudest for Chorus. Listen to the song for Strum pattern.

Intro: C

Verse:
F                       C
all the tables nice and clean
F          C
evelyns asleep
 F                 C
on the grave yard shift again
           G
selling gasoline

           F                   C

theres an old folk song on the radio
        Am      F        C          G
sounding thin and dark and haunted
      Am          F          C                     G
theres a bag of weed in the back beneath the books

like an old crow, king of the lamp-post

theres a thin dark cloud in the evening air

after every sunny day
    Am          F              C
