Also, in the chorus, Dadd4add9 doesn't slide back down to C until around the word "be"
but it's a long chord name and a pain in the ass to fit in there. Listen to the song,
you'll figure the strumming and everything out.

(s=slide to)
Intro during horn solo is just G to Cadd9 to G repeating

That misery is

 a talent you 

can hone

             
And sorrow is 

              
a product we a

But I'm just t

      
rying to be a

They'll treat

And the porcel

ain teeth that

Can't wait for

              
 you to fall s

         
o they can tak

           
e your place


   
And I'm just t

     
rying to be a
