Hello James -

The strumming goes something like this:

D = Down ;  d = Down, but just hit the bottom E ; ^ = up

	 Em                 F#m 
   1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &     1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
   d   D   d ^ D ^     D ^ D ^   ^ D ^   

   ** Mute the first 2 ups on the F#m.

Repeat this pattern with each line.  (2 bars intro)
Every line is the same, chorus, verses, everything.
For the most part, chord changes on nouns.
The lyrics should be right, as I copied them from an old
copy of that 'greatest hits' album. (back when the sleeves
had lyrics. :)
