Just the chords here, the intro/verse riff is just some standard
hammer-ons/pull-offs with the chord shapes, listen to the recording
it's easy enough to figure out.

Capo 2

INTRO
C F C G | C F G | C F C G | C F C G C C/b|

VERSE 1
Am F C Em
Monday morning, comes a crawling in
From another weekend choked with cigarettes and sin
I've been busy, so much lately
That every time I get some time to spend
I end up drunk or sleeping in
And I miss you, you're busy too
We call each other up, when we're messed up
And say we'll meet in the New Year
Am F C G
But it's perfectly clear we'll do no such thing, Come the spring

CHORUS 1
G C F C
When the evening casts it's shadows on the corners of my days
G C F 
And I am old and I am settled in the place where I will stay
G C F C
When my wandering meanderings have finally reached their end
G C F
Yeah whatever else maybe I will not forget my friends

C F C G
C F C G C

VERSE 2
Am F C Em
Friday evening, barely even begins
Before my phone begins to ring with people asking where I am
And I can't suppress a smile, we talk a while
The chances are that I am far away and so I'm phased out of the plan
And that's how I miss out, on another night
The kind of night where nothing really happens
Yeah but everything goes down
Am F C G
And at the end I'm just a promise to pick up the phone, When I'm in town

CHORUS 2
G C F C
When the evening casts it's shadows on the corners of my days
G C F
And I am old and I am settled in the place where I will stay
G C F C
When my wandering meanderings have finally reached their end
G C F
Yeah whatever else maybe may my friends remember me
