Verse 2 (Use Same Chords As Verse 1)
Typewriter steel and gray - work away - everybody's going home
Over across town - caught in a crowd - still living alone

A little something for the pain
Lady-in-waiting patiently for the lord of the rock n' roll aristocracy
Dreaming in photographs at night - love's like sand held in your hand
so tight.

the solo's such as the electric guitar are done in the key of Am and all
other Instruments are playing Am or some variation of the chord or a riff

Notes:
For a song like this I would use the Open Chords (First Set) for the
acoustic playing and perhaps Experiment with the Alternate fingers with
the electric to get a "fuller" distortion. If you have any questions,
