I like to palm-mute the verses and I substitute the high E on the C chord
from the Chorus for a G:
C
E|-0->-3-|
B|-1---1-|
G|-0---0-|
D|-2---2-|
A|-3---3-|
E|-x---x-|
Intro:Em - G - Am - CE5
Arthur climbs the stairs in the back
G5
Wipes his feet on the welcome mat
A5
Puts his keys on the shelf that he built
C5
Checks the plants on the windowsill
E5
Catches a glimpse of himself in the glass
G5
Laughs cause his hair's stickin' up in the back
A5
He can't call his kids or his wife
C5
Cause he'd drink 'till he'd cry to his daughter
About God and life
ChorusC
A silhouette of innocence
G
A shaving cut on common sense
Am
Holding what can't let you go
D
Laughing hardest to the comic's intro
C
A winter walk to clear your mind
G
Do your twenties suck until twenty-nine?
Am
Holding what can't let you go
DEm
Dance your heart out to the 3-4 Tango
Em
(E5 - G5 - A5 - C5 through the 2nd verse, in the same manner as the 1st)
Sara disowned her whole family
And then her brother the writer penned the story
She said, 'you just sit there and think that you
Know about people when really
You wanna hold the mirror to nature
Thinking you're the next Miller or Shakespeare
Will the glass ever come to you?
Cause who knows what you'd do?'
ChorusC
A silhouette of innocence

It's that haunting thought and familiar ghost
D5C5G5
That holds you hard and can't let you go,
A5D5
Let you go!
(Hey!)
C - G - Am - D x2
C
Some use crowds of strangers
Em
Like a shield
AmEm
From love and being loved,

Being loved
