Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard

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

Intro: G C G D x4

Verse 1:
G           C       G             D
Working all day for a mean little man
       G       C         G      D
With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan
              Em            C              D              G
He's got me running 'round the office like a dog around a track
    G                C             D                    G
But when I get back home, You're always there to rub my back

Chorus:
G   C      D         C
Hey Julie, look what they're doing to me
Em             C             D         G
Trying to trip me up, trying to wear me down
G        C           D          C
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
Em                    C          D        G
And I'd never make it through without you around
        Em            C         D         G
No, I'd never make it through without you around

       G C G D
       G C D G

Verse 2:
G            C            G         D
Hours on the phone making pointless calls
G                    C           G             D
I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all
Em                C      D            G
Sometimes I catch myself staring into space
G                 C          D            G
Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face

Chorus:
G   C      D         C
Hey Julie, look what they're doing to me
Em             C             D         G
Trying to trip me up, trying to wear me down
G        C           D          C
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
Em                    C          D        G
And I'd never make it through without you around
        Em            C         D         G
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
C                   G          D
Far away from each other every day?
Em              (G) D              (D)
Why must I spend my time filling up my mind
C                           D
With facts and figures that never add up anyway?
                  G
They never add up anyway

     (G C G D
       G C D G) x2

Verse 3:
G            C      G             D
Working all day for a mean little guy
        G     C             G        D
With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie
            Em                  C          D            G
He's got me running 'round the office like a gerbil on a wheel
        Em             C          D                  G
He can tell me what to do but he can't tell me how to feel

Chorus:
G   C      D         C
Hey Julie, look what they're doing to me
Em             C             D         G
Trying to trip me up, trying to wear me down
G        C           D          C
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
Em                    C          D        G
I'd never make it through without you around
        Em            C         D         G
No, I'd never make it through without you around
        Em            C         D         G
No, I'd never make it through without you around
