Its a combination of what sounds good between two Elliott Smith fansite's versions.
(Sweet Adeline and Smiling at Confusion).
As usual tune it one whole step to get what Elliott normally sounded like.

the clap of the fading out sound of your shoes

made him wonder who he thought that he knew

A Bb

sick of you comin' around

you can't ask for more, ask for more, knowing you'll never get

but I'll go to the service and I'll go to pray and I'll sing the praises in

A Bb

my maker's name

A G

like I was as good as she made me

and I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me [x8]
