This is a pretty number off Town by Town. It's fairly simple. I am going by the 
album version since I have not heard them play it live.

Intro:

GMy (320003@1)mind, it is also like the white line      when without a bassist,
C (x32010@1)       D (xx0232@1)          C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   G (320003@1)     walk down G (320003@1)name="chord_320002@1">G/F# G/FEndlessly (120003@1)searching, a man without a clue

Same old repetition, feeling up and down again
G (320003@1)         C (x32010@1) D*
Sorrow is a highway
   C (x32010@1)   D (xx0232@1)      GIt (320003@1)never seems to end

Verse 2:
GAnother (320003@1)day, it is ending
  C (x32010@1)            D (xx0232@1)
I feel my feet upon the ground
    C (x32010@1)       D (xx0232@1)  GAnd (320003@1)know they walk alone
GWhat (320003@1)do I care now though if another day is ending
    C (x32010@1)             D (xx0232@1)            C (x32010@1)       D (xx0232@1)    GThe (320003@1)days will end until my name is carved in stone alone

Outro: Intro chords

*The riff played runs down G Aeolian starting at A on the 3rd string after the D 
chord. I just mess around with it, Adam is too fast.
