I play it acoustic.
Tuned a full step down. I put a capo on the second fret to fit my vocal range
better, and find it helps finger the F#m a little bit. Whatever you need.

Intro
F#m E D E (x4) Listen for the palm mutes
I cF#mut my teeth on the Astone of a Eteenage F#mromance A E
I was the F#msalt of the earth, I was Ahard, and the Elast of the indeF#mpendeAntsE
And the Dbreath from my Echest I was F#mblowing kerosene
My lips and Dfingertips were Estone, I wore my F#mheart on my jeans
I sang the Dblues like the Edogs left too F#mlong in the street
I still Dsing the Eblues with the F#mdogs
And I got Ahalf a mind to Elet it all burn F#mup in this fire
That's been Aburning through my Eveins since I F#mfirst learned to cry
I'd watch this Awhole night come Edown and never F#mmiss her again
I never Dfelt right and never fit Ein
(F#m E D E) x4 same as intro
Walking in my own skin
Now I got F#mscars like the number of Astars, my Emind's full of F#mvipers A E
I got the F#mdust of the desert in my Abones, Ecoming through the ampliF#mfiers A E
Between the Dminor chord Efall and the F#mfourth and the fifth
It's a Dbroken HalleElujah and a F#mpain in my fist
I wash my Dhands like the Eman with the F#mblood on his teeth
Over and Dover Ewithout F#mrelief
And I got Anothing for you Edarling but a F#mstory to tell
About the Arain on the Epavement and the F#msound as it fell
I'd watch this Awhole night come Edown and never F#mmiss her again
I never Dfelt right and never fit Ein
Walking in my Aold man Eshoes, with my F#mscientist heart
I got a Afever and a Ebeaker and a F#mshot in the dark
I need a ACadillac Eride, I need a F#msoft summer night
Say a Dprayer for my soul, SeñEorita
Because I've been F#mdying out Ehere in the Dcold and the snow
I've got a F#mpicture of you, EMama, to remDind me of home
On the F#mhood of a EDodge on a DSaturday night
Say a Dprayer for my soul, SeñoErita
