I think he uses a different tuning, and a capo on the second fret. But i think this sounds quite accurate, with
no need to change tuning.

Verse: With intro chords

There's empty cans on River Street, scumbag city blues
Sunday morning's indiscrete, Saturday left clues
Last night's claps and filthy slaps need oh no excuse
Are you cutting out or holding back a loop hole or a noose

Scumbag city blues, scumbag city blues

Solo
                A
And when you're lying in your hotel,
        A
Thinking "good riddance to that"
     G                                       G
Well something creeps inside you yeah honey oh something pulls you back
    A                                          A
But it ain't the one way system that's got you uh coming back around no
G                                             G
It's all those friends and family keeping the size eights on the ground

There's empty cans on River Street, scumbag city blues
Sunday morning feels complete,
When I get back to you
I could skip and give a miss,
That I'd never choose
Cause even though I take the piss
I'm glad the future's blue
