The song uses the same finger-picking pattern throughout like this,
e|----------------------| b|-------------x--------| G|-------x-----------x--| D|----------x-----x-----| A|----x-----------------| E|----------------------|
I'm not sure if this is 100% accurate but it sounds fine playing it this way to me.
Intro
[Eb] [Ab]
[Eb] It was [Ab]backstage in [Eb]Moscow [Ab]late one night[Eb]
[Ab]We shared a [Eb]cigarette, a [Ab]kiss goodbye[Eb]
Her [Cm]name was [Bb]Cayenne, so [Ab]young and s[Eb]oft
Her [Cm]hands trembled [Bb]badly, her [Ab]eyes trailed [Eb]off
To [Cm]bottles and [Bb]objects a[Ab]round the [Eb]room
My [Cm]backup guit[Bb]ar, a [Ab]tray of [Eb]food
[Ab]We didn't[Eb] have very[Ab] much to say[Eb]
She [Ab]said that she'd [Eb]come from [Ab]some other place[Eb]
A [Cm]town called [Bb]Troyskirt[Ab], maybe [Eb]Troysworth
I was [Cm]pretty dist[Bb]racted [Ab]packing my [Eb]stuff
But I [Cm]did make a [Bb]point to [Ab]ask her to [Eb]stay
But she [Cm]said she had [Bb]friends that she [Ab]had to go [Eb]see
[Ab] Later that [Eb]summer I [Ab]picked up my [Eb]mail
She [Ab]sent me a [Eb]letter with a [Ab]touching detai[Eb]l
"I [Cm]used up my [Bb]minutes [Ab]calling ho[Eb]tels
To [Cm]find you that [Bb]night but [Ab]to no avail"[Eb]
"I [Cm]know it's pat[Bb]hetic," she con[Ab]tinued to write,[Eb]
"But [Cm]that was the [Bb]greatest [Ab]night of my [Eb]life."
