it was pretty easy to play this song with the popular chord progression of F#-A-E-B.

A            x 0 2 2 2 0

Verse One:
F#                A
All around me are familiar faces

Worn out places, worn out faces

F#                         A
Bright and early for their daily races

E              Bsus2
Going nowhere, going nowhere

F#                      A
Their tears are filling up their glasses

E              Bsus2
No expression, no expression

F#                     A
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow

No tomorrow, no tomorrow
