Tabbed this out for acoustic. Sounds pretty solid.
Looks like they capo on 2 or 3, but it's up to you.
On acoustic, playing it with fingers on the 3rd fret of the B and E string (not sure what those chords are)
sounds good. But I think you can play it however you like. Still, this tab is accurate.
I also like to play it with a Gadd9, Cadd9, Dsus4, and the Em.
GThink you're exaggerating lonesome ways,C  G  
GThey're all around when you're wandering off.C  G  
GYou'd like to tear out of your skin,C  G  
GStart making lists just to break your falCl
EmBut you get cDaught up in Call the maybes.
EmYou're getting cDaught up in Call the maybes.
Verses and chorus repeat like that throughout the song.
