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.

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.
