If you have a secondary guitarist, you can have them pick/play
D/A - A7 omit5 - D5/A - D7/A and add F#m (#5)/A and follow along with a D
there is also an intro riff that needs to be tabbed
hopefully someone will be willing to get make one.

[Verse]

D                 Dsus4        D5    Dsus4
For ten weeks now number three stood empty
D      Dsus4            D5                                                        
Nobody thought there would be
D         Dsus4  D5         Dsus4       D      Dsus4    D5     
Family laughter behind the windows      Or a Christmas tree.
D      Dsus4            D5         D           Dsus4    D5           
Then a couple from up north       Sorrow and his wife arrived
D        Dsus4      D5         D
Before the sun had left the streets
C          G       D       C G  D
They were living inside.


[Verse]

D    Dsus4       D5    D            Dsus4         D5           
Then before too long  The street it rang with the sound
D         Dsus4        D5      Dsus4   
From number three there came a cry
C     G          D      C G D
S. F. Sorrow is born.


[Chorus]

D    Dsus4    D5      D    Dsus4   D5          
Oh Oh SF Sorrow       Oh Oh SF Sorrow 
D    Dsus4   D5       C       G       D     
Oh Oh SF Sorrow       S. F. Sorrow is born.


[Verse]

D     Dsus4          D5    D               Dsus4        D5          
The sunlight of his days  Was spent in the grey of his mind
D          Dsus4        D5  Dsus4  D 
As he stole love with a tongue of lies
C             G           D      C G D
The world is shrinking in size.


[Outro]

D   Dsus4    D5       D    Dsus4   D5          
Oh Oh SF Sorrow       Oh Oh SF Sorrow 
D    Dsus4   D5  Dsus4 D         C       G        D     
Oh    Oh     SF    Sorrow        S. F. Sorrow is born.
