There aren't chords for this song anywhere that I can find, so I did it myself.
I've also included a tab for the main guitar riff of the song; it stretches
over multiple chords, so hopefully the way that I notated it is clear enough.
Capo III, all chords (and tab for riff) relative to capo.

G Riff EmCG
You were the mother of three girls so sweet
G Riff EmCG
That stormed through your turnstile and climbed to the street
G Riff EmCG
But after conception, your body lay cold
G Riff EmCG
And withered through autumn and you found yourself old
DB7
Can you tell me why you have been so sad?
G Riff EmCG
He took a lover on a faraway beach
G Riff EmCG
While you arranged flowers and chose color schemes
DB7GC
Can you tell me why you have been so saaad?
DB7G Riff
Can you tell me why you have been so sad?

GAmEmD
The girls were all there, they traded their vows
GAmC
The youngest one glared with furrowed brow
GAmEmD
As they tenderly kissed and cut the cake
GAmC
The bride then tripped and broke the vase
GAmEmD
The one you thought would span the years
GAmC
So perfectly placed below the mirror
GAmEmD
Arriving late, you cleaned the debris
GAmC
And walked into the angry scene
AmEmDE
It felt just like falling in love again
AmEmDC
And it felt just like falling in love again
