[Verse]
Badd4             F#m
      So you have been of use
           G6              Cmaj7  F#7add11
And you have been abused
 
Badd4                   F#m
      You know you look pale today
                G6              Cmaj7  F#7add11
Your lipstick has gone astray
 
Badd4                  F#m
      You sold out and lost your looks

You gave away all your books

(You should drown with me)
 
Badd4                    F#m
      Your coil has been wound up tight

Unwind it with me tonight

(You should drown with me)

(Badd4)            F#m
You're drowning in family there
               G6
When will you come up for air
            Cmaj7      F#7add11
(You should drown with me)
Badd4                F#m
      Don't feel you let 'em down
                   G6
'Cause they have already drowned

I don't agree with the chords here. I play it with the B and E strings open during the verse (except for the F#m, which you could also play with open strings). So it would be 799800, 244222 (or 244200 if you want to keep it open), 355400, 8.10.10.9.0.0, 244300. And the rhythm is all messed up in the chorus too. That's the biggest thing that was wrong with the other chord chart this is based on. you can figure it out, sure. But still.

Look at how Steven's playing it here: https://youtu.be/B_Bd9I1oBOM?t=1m15s I agree with the Mindless Waffle about the 799800 and 8 10 10 9 00 positions — you can hear the sliding a little on the recording. One more thing I caught is that there doesn't seem to be a third in the first F# chord of each "phrase". If I'm not mistaken Wilson's playing something like 244X00 there — the G string muted with the pinky.

You wrote C7 at the top but meant Cmaj7 (x35500 is C,G,C,B,E. The rest looks right
