Chords with lyrics
The guitar is a bit lower than standard tuning, but I don't think it's entirely down a half-step. I don't know.
Daniel Johnston tuning was always a bit off.

Time is a matter of fact
G+G C majorC G+G
And it?s gone and it?ll never come back
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G
And mine, it?s wasted all the time
D MajorD C majorC C7C7
Tears stupid tears bring me down
G+G C majorC G+G G+G C majorC G+G
G+G C majorC G+G
I got lucky by coincidence
G+G C majorC G+G
But I got my feelings bent
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G
And my head looking at the ground
D MajorD C majorC C7C7
Tears stupid tears bring me down

A minorAm E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
How could you know that?s where the wind blows
A minorAm E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
Out to the wind, that?s where my love goes
G+G C majorC G+G
And it brings me down
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G
Tie my brain into a knot
D MajorD C majorC C7C7
Those tears stupid tears bring me down
G+G C majorC G+G G+G C majorC G+G

I know that I have a friend
G+G C majorC G+G
He stays with me all day long
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G
He knows, and I walk in his shell
D MajorD
I was born in the body
And right from the start
C majorC C7C7
Those tears stupid tears
G+G C majorC G+G
Been tearing us apart
A minorAm E minorEm G+G C majorC G+G
How could you know that?s where the wind blows
