This is how I play the song! I'm basically following the bass line
and using that as chords to play along with.
Suggestions and corrections welcome!

[Verse 1]
I found a F#mhome away from home as I broke Emup in Amarante
In the CaDmpo do Carvalhal center cF#mircle every day
F#mErratic kamikaze, I copEmiloted the swift
Dreamt I’m ancDhoring that midfield, like the aF#mnchor in my midriff
[Verse 2]
I drifted thF#mrough a month alone as I broke Emup in Amarante
Nursed a tDwo beer buzz four whole weeks 'cause the F#monly way to feel sane
NeF#mwspaper front on the counter top emblEmazoned spot kick miss
I couldn’t eDven hum in your mother tongue, just a tF#mhumbs down raspberry kiss
[Chorus]
(It seems unDfairE) To be a rF#otten horn of plEenty
(It seems unDfairE) To be caF#daver for a cuErse
(It seems unDfairE) To be an oveF#rflow for emEpty
(It seems unDfairE) To try your bF#est but fEeel the wDorst

[Verse 3]
I threw an eF#mmpty bottle from way up, it thEmudded into the maw
Truth be tDold I spent the afternoon, andF#m I threw fifteen more
I’m wF#moken by a honking horn, hunEmgover, spread-eagle
Strength betDween the clicking crickets’ knees eF#mnough to crush my skull
[Chorus]
(It seems unDfairE) To be a rF#otten horn of plEenty
(It seems unDfairE) To be caF#daver fEor a curse
(It seems unDfairE) To be an oveF#rflow for emEpty
(It seems unDfairE) To try your bF#est but fEeel the wDorst

[Chorus]
It seems unfDairE to be a roF#tten horn of plEenty
Seems unfDairE to be (nF#ow I'm gonna need you to help me out...E)
(It seems unDfairE) To be an oveF#rflow for emEpty
(It seems unDfairE) To try your bF#est but fEeel the wDorst
