Tuning: Standard
No Capo
Check the song for strum patterns.
This is the cover they did for Fountains of Wayne. It's pretty much the same song, actually.
It's pretty straightforward, but feel free to make any changes. My first tab and all :p

Verse 1:
GCGD
Working all day for a mean little man
GCGD
With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan

He's got me running 'round the office like a dog around a track
GCDG
But when I get back home, You're always there to rub my back

Chorus:
GCDC
Hey Julie, look what they're doing to me
EmCDG
Trying to trip me up, trying to wear me down
GCDC
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
EmCDG
And I'd never make it through without you around
EmCDG
No, I'd never make it through without you around
GCGDGCDGVerse 2:
GCGD
Hours on the phone making pointless calls
GCGD
I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all
EmCDG
Sometimes I catch myself staring into space
GCDG
Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face
Chorus:
GCDC
Hey Julie, look what they're doing to me
EmCDG
Trying to trip me up, trying to wear me down
GCDC
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
EmCDG
And I'd never make it through without you around
EmCDG
No, I'd never make it through without you around
Bridge:
Em (G) D (D)
How did it come to be that you and I must be
CGD
Far away from each other every day?
Em (G) D (D)
Why must I spend my time filling up my mind
CD
With facts and figures that never add up anyway?
G
They never add up anyway
(GCGDGCDG) x2
Verse 3:
GCGD
Working all day for a mean little guy
GCGD
With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie

EmCDG
He can tell me what to do but he can't tell me how to feel
Chorus:
GCDC
Hey Julie, look what they're doing to me
EmCDG
Trying to trip me up, trying to wear me down
GCDC
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it

I'd never make it through without you around
EmCDG
No, I'd never make it through without you around

No, I'd never make it through without you around
