Most of this song is palm-muted. Listen to the song to nail the timing/rhythm.
Where chords are marked as, 'G#/A5' and 'C#/D5' this simply indicates it is a chord that is a mix between keys. Also when a chord sequence is marked as, 'E5~D5~C#5  B5' for instance, the ~ symbol intends to indicate it is a quick change between the chords mentioned. Also, the chords are not lined up exactly with the proper timing of the words, so again, might want to listen closely to the song to nail the timing between the chords. Have fun! It's rock o' clock! I love this song!

A5           G#/A5
He dont get out much
F#5       Em
These days
                              D5    C#/D5~D5
But I wouldnt call him
Em     E5~D5~C#5  B5
Lazy

   A5            G#/A5
He sees the dawn sneak
F#5       Em
Into the room
D5       C#/D5~D5
And knows the dogs will
Em     E5~D5~C#5
Be up soon

B5         A5                                 E5
And we thought that he was doing all right
B5         A5                  E5           A5(OR OPTIONAL E5~D5~C#5 B5*)
As the sun chased down another night

*instrumental, play through the verse sequence once, while lead synth/guitar plays melody hook*

A5       G#/A5
And days carreen
F#5         Em
Like the waters
D5    C#/D5~D5
Of a river rushing
Em    E5~D5~C#5  B5
To the sea

A5     G#/A5
Here she comes again
F#5         Em
Down the staircase
D5        C#/D5~D5
She never passes without
Em   E5~D5~C#5
Saying hello

B5                                  A5                   E5
And we thought that he was doing all right
        B5         A5       E5
And she says hello
B5       A5                   E5
I cant forget the ghost
B5       A5                   E5
I cant forget the ghost
B5       A5                   E5
I cant forget the ghost
         D5
Of his smile

*instrumental, play through the verse sequence once, while lead synth/guitar plays melody hook*

A5             G#/A5
Dogs will wag their tails
F#5           Em
And birds will sing
D5       C#/D5~D5
Hell its a hard world
Em               E5~D5~C#5
For little things

B5                            A5                   E5
And we thought that he was doing all right
B5       A5               E5
I cant forget the ghost
B5       A5              E5
I cant forget the ghost
