The chords in the 1st part are used in the two first and two final verses, while the chords in the 2nd part 
come in during the 3rd verse (this part also uses some of the chords from the 1st part). The song uses a 
consistent finger-picking pattern throughout, which is something like: A string, G-string, D-string, B-string 
(if chords doesn't indicate otherwise of course).

There is also a little transition from the G/B to F in the verses, I do this by playing the G/B three times, 
then the 4th time putting my index finger on the 5 fret on the A string (relative to capo) and slide it up to 
the F position.

At the end of each verse, and between the 3rd and 4th lines there is a sort of conclusive riff, which goes 
something like this:

Now I’m drunk and afraid, wishing the world would go away
D/A                         C/G*
What’s the point of singing songs
C/G*                  G, C/G, G (ver. 2)
If they’ll never even hear you?
