The opening riff is kinda like:
E -|--------------------- B -|--------------------- G -|--------------------- D -|--------------------- A -|--------7-5-7-5------ E -|---5-5----------7---- Repeated 8 times.
Then it goes into an A B E progression. 1 bar A, 1 bar B, two bars E.
I play it kind of ska-like because I can't quite get the
chunk-a-chunka rhythm from the record. Play the progression twice
and then over the verses.
A B C The place I love is a million miles away. A B C It's too far for the eye to see. Bm E A F#m Still it's me at least, and you can't come there. A B C No one is allowed at all. Bm E A F#m Only animals that love, will always, only ever could be. A B E And it's always in the back of my mind.

A B E The place I love is overgrown now, A B E with beautiful moss and colorful flowers. Bm E A F#m And goldfish that swim in a pool, theres a small brick wall A B E With neon lightings controlled by lightning. Bm E I'm makin' a stand against the world A F#m There's those that would hurt us if they heard. A B E And it's always in the back of my mind.
(riff 4 times)
A B E The place I love is nowhere near here. A B E Not within a yard of the trendy do's Bm E A F#m Where dogsbodies pick you up, and graciously give you a lift A B E with cherished thoughts and bitterness. Bm E I'm makin' a stand against the world A F#m There's those that would hurt us if they heard. A B E And it's always in the back of my mind.
