The opening riff is kinda like:

E - | ---------------------
B - | ---------------------
G - | ---------------------
D - | ---------------------
A - | --------7-5-7-5------
E - | ---5-5----------7----  Repeated 8 times.

Then it goes into an A B E progression.  1 bar A, 1 bar B, two bars E.
I play it kind of ska-like because I can't quite get the
chunk-a-chunka rhythm from the record. Play the progression twice
and then over the verses.

A5             B5               C5
    The place I love is a million miles away.
A5            B5                     C5
    It's too far for the eye to see.
B5            E5          A5                 F#5
    Still it's me at least,   and you can't come there.
A5           B5             C5    
    No one is allowed at all.
B5        E5                       A5         F#5
    Only animals that love, will   always, only ever could be.
A5               B5                        E5
    And  it's always in the back of my mind.

A5               B5                  E5
    The place I love is overgrown now,
A5                  B5                 E5
    with beautiful moss and colorful flowers.
B5               E5             A5         F#5   
    And goldfish that swim in a pool,   theres a small brick wall
A5                B5                    E5
    With neon lightings controlled by lightning.
B5                E5                    
    I'm makin' a stand against the world     
A5                             F#5
    There's those that would hurt us if they heard.
A5             B5                        E5
    And it's always in the back of my mind.

    The place I love is nowhere near here.
A5                B5                   E5
    Not within a yard of the trendy do's
B5                    E5           A5         F#5
    Where dogsbodies pick you up,    and graciously give you a lift
A5                    B5                 E5
    with cherished thoughts and bitterness.
B5                 E5               
    I'm makin' a stand against the world   
A5                             F#5
    There's those that would hurt us if they heard.
A5             B5                        E5
    And it's always in the back of my mind.
