I have been playing this on a tenor drop G chordG uke, 
but it doesn't really matter. For the Bbadd9 chordBbadd9,
just play a Bb chordBb, add a C chordC on the A chordA string OR just drop the D chordD
that you normally play on the C chordC string.

Verse: F chordF Am chordAm Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF C chordC
Chorus: Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF Bb9 chordBb9 C chordC


Intro:
F chordF Am chordAm Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF C chordC


Verse 1:
F chordF
In our days we will live

Am chordAm
Like our ghosts will live

Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF
Pitching glass at the cornfield crows

C chordC
And folding clothes

Verse 2:
F chordF
Like stubborn boys across the road
Am chordAm
We'll keep everything:
Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF
Grandma's gun and the black bear claw
C chordC
That took her dog

Verse 3:
F chordF
When sister Laurie says, "Amen"
Am chordAm
We won't hear anything:
Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF
The ten-car trains will take that word
C chordC
That fledgling bird

Verse 4:
F chordF
And the fallen house across the way
Am chordAm
It'll keep everything:

Bb9 chordBb9
The baby's breath
F chordF C chordC
Our bravery wasted and our shame


Chorus:

Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF
And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
Bb9 chordBb9 C chordC
Both our tender bellies wound in baling wire
Bb9 chordBb9 F chordF
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
Bb9 chordBb9 C chordC
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern

Verse 5

In our days we will say
What our ghosts will say:
We gave the world what it saw fit
And what'd we get?

Verse 6

Like stubborn boys with big green eyes
We'll see everything:
In the tender shade of the autumn leaves
And the buzzard's wing

Chorus

And we'll undress beside the ashes of the fire
Our tender bellies are wound around in baling wire
All the more a pair of underwater pearls
Than the oak tree and its resurrection fern

Then Sam plays the verse chords once more and ends on an F chordF.
