Matt plays it with no capo, but the tuning is different. These are the chords as best as
could tell as they were played on the KCRW session from 5/14/08 (seen here:

G B7 Em
There's just one thing,
There's just one thing
G B7
That'll torture your soul
Em
The grass'll stain your clothes
Am B7 Em
'Til a bleeding heart hands you a rose
It's a long, long wait,
It's a long long wait
Four-letter words
Can cause you so much pain
It's a long, long wait
Bom, bom, bom, etc.
Bm
They're coming soon to take you away
Em
But you can't wait another day
Bm
The loneliest and lonelier
C G
Well, he'll get his and she'll get hers
How long must I wait?
How long must I wait?
The good's all gone bad
The villain stole a hen
And you hide in corners begging for a chance
There's just one thing,
There's just one thing
That'll torture your soul
The grass'll stain your clothes
'Til a bleeding heart hands you a rose
'Til a bleeding heart hands you a rose
'Til a bleeding heart hands you a rose
