This is the version of Carl's live from Rolling Stone Performance, interesting 
because, in despite of the easy way to play the song, you get a remarkable effect. 
I placed the chords thinking about the vocals; if you listen to this version of 
the song you can understand what I'm talking about.

TUNING: EADGBE
NO CAPO

Intro: Bm G Em F#

Bm              G
The ideal girl in London from France
 Em
Came over then left me
 F#
She left me entranced
 F#    Bm                  G
Now I have to get by once again on my own
       Em   F#
Nothing but memories

Bm                        G
So I remember your eyes that unique shade of brown
           Em                           F#
While these blue eyes of mine they stay closed
  Bm
I kissed you goodbye
      G       Em                         F#
On the M109 I choked as I watched the bus go

Bm                          G
I'm choking and smoking to your angelic soul
     Em                  F#
I'm choking and smoking myself into a hole
  Bm                         G
Where the only way out is to sleep and to dream
      Em           F#
And to cry out your name.
