Calgary Girls (acoustic) from "Throw Me In The River" album (2014)
I figured this out off this YouTube recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7bMs4Kqlvw&spfreload=10
Watch it to get the strumming down.
Lyrics may be off in places but I think I got 99% of them.

Intro: G1 G2 G3 Cadd9 x2
G1 G2 G3
In dark corners and bars and ballrooms
G1 G2 G3
Boys get childish and grow up too soon
Cadd9
I sit and stare at the Calgary girls
Cadd9
Pretty hair and their mummys’ pearls on
G1 G2 G3
Till the fear wells up and hits me
G1 G2 G3
Send letters to a comfortable history
Cadd9
I used to have it all
Cadd9 D
Now my head falls hard and alone
Cadd9
Onto a motel pillow
G
And I know there’s a script that I could rehearse
Em
And there are lines and I could make them work
Cadd9
But I don’t want them, I want you
G
And it’s not like there’s a space that I need to fill
Em
Or like I have any time we could kill
Cadd9
But I don’t need this, I need you
D Cadd9
And this is the exact thing that I always do
G1 G2 G3 Cadd9
G1 G2 G3
We used to lie right here and speak
G1 G2 G3
We were fucking great between these sheets
Cadd9
That you bought to replace the old ones she left when she needed her own space
G1 G2 G3
And I took the hand-me-downs
G1 G2 G3
And I flipped the covers inside out
Cadd9
And I’ll pretend that I’m different now
G1 G2 G3
And the first time we made love
G1 G2 G3
It was dark and we were drunk
Cadd9
In someone else’s, someone else’s hostel bathroom
G1 G2 G3
And you turned your back to me
G1 G2 G3
And I said “If this is the first of many then turn
Cadd9 D
back around, so I can fucking kiss you.”
G
And I know there’s a script that I could rehearse
Em
And there are lines and I could make them work
Cadd9
But I don’t want them, I want you
G
And it’s not like there’s a space that I need to fill
Em
Or like I have any time we could kill
Cadd9
But I don’t need this, I need you
D Cadd9
And this is the exact thing that I always do
Em D*
And if you see me again
G Cadd9
Holding up some dive bar’s end
Em D*
With the whiskey sat far too naturally
G Cadd9
between my legs
Em D*
Will you saunter over smokily and
G Cadd9
tell me about your family
Em D*
And I’ll tell you you were right
G Cadd9
When you said I’d end up lonely
Em D*
And I’ll tell you that my life
G Cadd9
didn’t crack up to what our life would’ve been
Em D*
And I’ll stand up to say something
G
And fall straight back in my seat
Em D* G Cadd9
And you’ll check your watch and say “It’s probably time for you to leave.”
Em D* G Cadd9
And I’ll stand up to say something brave and grand, fall straight back in my seat
Em D* G Cadd9
You will check your watch and say “It’s probably time for you to leave.”
D
And you will offer me a ride
Cadd9 D
Only cos it’s so fucking cold outside
Cadd9 [cut off and then build] Cadd9
You were always far too kind
G
And I know there’s a script that I could rehearse
Em
And there are lines and I could make them work
Cadd9 D
But I don’t want them, I want you
G
And it’s not like there’s a space that I need to fill
Em
Or like I have any time we could kill
Cadd9
But I don’t need this, I fucking need you
D Cadd9 G
And this is the exact thing that I always do
