For verse, before every chord is played its root note is struck.
 
The little twangy bit at the end of each bar is this:
 
      Am               Em                 C
e|---------------------------------------------------|

eyes / Or my head, did I die?
C              F           Am              Em

   My sour boy is a pain / I wanna shoot him in the
C                F              Am          Em
brain / But I'd miss him in the morning
C            F               Am         Em
   It really hurts / When I need to so bad but I can't see

       C         F                    Am                  F
When I can power through / And when I need some help from you
       C               F                   Am               F

            C          F              Am            F
Sometimes I act like I know / But I'm really just a kid

With two corks in his eyes / And a bully in his head

before / I wanna be so much more
C              F              Am            Em
   I hope that she / Looks at me and thinks !!shit!!, he's so
C             F            Am             Em
pretty / Something I can't believe

Everything is fine except that the E minor chord should instead be an A minor over E (basically the same chord shape as an A minor, but you also strum the sixth string). Hope this helps anyone that finds the chords to sound a little off!
