Good song by the now dead Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains.
This isn't exact, in regards to the positioning of the chords, and I didn't put
chords over all the lyrics. It's easy, listen to the song and you'll figure it out pretty quick.
As for the G6 Chord....not sure if that's the exact name for it, but you just take
your fingers off the b and high e strings on the 3rd fret, playing them as open b and high e.

VERSE 1
GWellG6 it'Cs hCMaj7ard to believe in much
When you're in Tampa Bay.
And the coastline is drowning beneath all the sunshine and
condo's and cocaine.
And eveAmryone around's just waiting roCund here to be dead
G G6 C CMaj7
Am(Bar) C(Bar)
From your rich grandma on down through the crackhead.
VERSE 2
GWellG6 I gCuesCMaj7s that Florida
is the wrong kinda wasteland for me,
and St. Petersburg is a city of ghosts and bad dreams.
CHORUS
Am(Bar) C(Bar) G G6 C CMaj7
But I don't go to college or California...hah-hah-hah-hah-ha
No I dAmon't go to college oCr California.

VERSE3
GWellG6 I'mC noCMaj7t a nihilist,
I just can't pledge alliegance to shit.
And that goes just the same for your God's and your empires
and your scene politics.
Am(Bar) C(Bar) G G6 C CMaj7
Now I'm not saying I'm not an asshole, just that you're one too.
But theAmre's six bilion of us so I'm not sCaying nothing new.
GStraG6ightC edCMaj7ge never got me through
one single night this cold.
Am(Bar) C(Bar)
But you know how that goes, or maybe you just really don't.
Am(Bar) C(Bar) G G6 C CMaj7
But I don't go to college or California...hah-hah-hah-hah-ha
No I dAmon't go to college oCr California
