The intro has some fingerpicking so mess around until you find something close. 
The verses also have some inconsistent hammer ons/offs so feel free to freestyle.

in the volvo on your way to borrow foreign movies from the library.

did they teach you french in new york?

did you learn to shave your face close with dial soap and a steak knife?

how to slickly wipe a sweaty palm on your pants thigh

before shaking hands firm with the shadiest show promoters?

you left your reds hat in the back seat of mom's volvo.

i know it's hard for a single person to fold queen size bed sheets.
