How to Rent a Room  Silver Jews

This song is in standard tuning, 6/8 time.
Verse:
 
 e|-----------------------------------------|
 B|--1--1--1--1--1--1-----1--1--1--1--1--1--|
 G|--2--2--2--0-h2--2-----0--0--0--0--0--0--|
 D|--3--3--3--3--3--3-----2--2--2--0-h2--2--|
 A|--3--3--3--3--3--3-----3--3--3--3--3--3--|
 E|-----------------------------------------|

Play the F [F]and C in the same ess[C]ential shape (i.e. don't use a barred chord for the F,
so that it's easier to switch). Remove your middle finger on the fourth strum, and
replace it on the 5th.
There seems to be a melody played under the verse, which is somewhat like this:
 
 e|--------------------------|
 B|--------------------------|
 G|--------------------------|
 D|--------2--5--2--------2--|
 A|--3--5-----------3--5-----|
 E|--------------------------|

Either way, it's not terribly important to the song...
After he says "Have you even ever rented a room?" play an A minor, and let it ring for a
measure before you play the chorus.
Chorus:
 
 e|--1--1--1-----------3--3--3-----------0--0--0-----------0--0--0--0--0--0--|
 B|--3--3-----3--------0--0-----0--------0--0-----0--------1--1--1--1--1--1--|
 G|--2--2--------2-----0--0--------0-----0--0--------0-----2--2--2--2--2--2--|
 D|--0--0-----------0--0--0-----------0--2--2-----------2--2--2--2--2--2--2--|
 A|--------------------2--2--------------2--2--------------0--0--0--0--0--0--|
 E|--------------------3--3--------------0--0--------------------------------|

You [Dm]can strum this or ar[G]peggiate it. Eit[Em]her way. It's the[Am] same scheme.
