This song is in 3/4 time and the strumming sounds heavier than it is in actuality.
Also note that when playing the C chord in the verse, hammer on the first fret of the B string.
In the acoustic version - Zach plays a Dadd4add9/F# on the piano.

[Verse]
G Dadd4add9 Em C
You took a train to the south side of Boston,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
You showed me where your old man stayed,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
Took 28 years of blood I was lost in,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
To feel loved on my own birthday,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
I always felt like I's in between something,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
Like home and somewhere far away,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
But tonight on the west side in a bar out in Brooklyn,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
I saw tears outline your face,
[Chorus]
Em D/F#
How lucky are we?
G C
It's been a hell of a week, but you're all grown now,
Em D/F# G
There's smoke seeping out, of your bloody teeth,
C
But you're home somehow,
[Break]

[Verse]
G Dadd4add9 Em C
I'll be upstairs with the guitar I's given,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
When I was barely fourteen,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
When did McGlinchey's get so crowded,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
And why are the crowds so damn green?
G Dadd4add9 Em C
I lost my mind on the streets of the city,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
Maybe I lost all hope too,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
Took 28 years of blood pumping through me,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
To get to this evening with you,
[Chorus]
Em D/F#
How lucky are we?
G C
It's been a hell of a week, but we're all grown now,
Em D/F# G
There's smoke seeping out, of the bar down the street
C
But we're home somehow,
[Solo 1]
| Em | D/F# | G | C |
| Em | D/F# | G | C |
[Chorus]
Em D/F#
How lucky are we?
G C
It's been a hell of a week, but we're all grown now,
Em D/F# G
There's smoke seeping out, of the bar down the street
C
But we're home somehow,
[Solo 2]

| Em | D/F# | G | C |
[Outro]
G Dadd4add9 Em C
You took a train to the south side of Boston,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
You showed me where your whole heart stayed,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
Took twenty-eight years of blood pumpin' through me,
G Dadd4add9 Em C
To feel loved on my own birthday

I think the first Em chord in the chorus is played before the lyric is sung. I also noticed in the first verse, the fifth line, the Dmaj7 chord should be over "felt" instead of "like"
