The same pattern basically applies in the first verse to these following chords:

Dm*    C'*    F*     C*     Gm*
e ---5------8------1------3------3------|
B ---6------8------1------5------3------|
G ---7------9------2------5------3------|
D --------------------------------------|
A --------------------------------------|
E --------------------------------------|

Dm*                                        C'*
So amused, the six street peddlers come to sing your blues
    Dm*                                     C'*
And money spent, to damn the rivers of your discontent
F*                                        C*
You got your invitation to the bachelor's ball
Gm*                       C*                         F*
And you stay out till the sun comes creeping up your bedroom wall

Dm/A                                        CSkin (x32010@1)and bones, the city streets below just weep and moan
F (133211@1)                                           CBut (x32010@1)from your window above, you only hear the rain

              C (x32010@1)             FWe'll (133211@1)sit and wait for your return

Dm/A                                     FSo (133211@1)composed, wake on the floor in your designer clothes
Dm/A                                           CAnd (x32010@1)so refined, you think the country's just a state of mind
F (133211@1)                                                  CSwitch (x32010@1)like a switchblade my love, cut the young men down

Bb (x1333x@1)      F (133211@1)           C (x32010@1)    DmHolding (xx0231@1)a torch to your silver spoon

C (x32010@1)          F (133211@1)         C (x32010@1)    BbAnd (x1333x@1)in the ashes of the cities that you've burned
