have been edited a bit from his original for my own use.

Divorce
Now it goes back to the second verse- same as the first (but different words!)
After the second chorus, it goes to a middle eight type thing with the words:
"At the grotto, in the easy chair, sits the Charlie...." etc
Going in to this, the last line of the chorus is slightly different in that you
don't play the E, G#m7G#m7 and A augmentedA chords but go straight from Em6Em6 to :
MIDDLE 8:

INSTRUMENTAL (Guitar solo):
G+G / F7F7 / C majorC / Bb7Bb7 A7A7 (play three times)
Cmaj7Cmaj7 / / Bm7Bm7 E minor 7Em7 / Em6Em6 / E minor 7Em7 / Em6Em6 / E minor 7Em7 / Em6Em6 / E MajorE / G#m7G#m7 A augmentedA
Next it goes to another verse (verse 3)
Same chords as before
Then another chorus
At the end of the third chorus, play as for the second chorus i.e miss out
the E MajorE G#m7G#m7 and A augmentedA chords
Instead of these go straight into another instrumental bit, same as above
for the first threee lines (i.e the three repetition of the first line)
but then play:
Fmaj7Fmaj7 / / / E minor 7Em7 / Em6Em6 /
and repeat this line as much as you want (the song fades here)
For some chords I've put alternative shapes for the same chord. Take your pick
