[
Sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a Corvette
[
Thinks he'll get the girl, he'll only get the mechanic
[
What's missing? He's living a day he'll soon forget
[mute the strings and strum the rythym quickly]
[
That's one more time around, the sun is going down
[
The moon is out, but he's drunk and shouting, putting people down
[
He's pissing, he's living a day he'll soon forget
[
Counts his money every morning, the only thing that keeps him horny
[
Locked in a giant house, that's alarming
[
The townsfolk, they all laugh
[muted strings strumming]
[
Sorry is the fool who trades his love for high-rise rent
[
Seems the more you make equals the loneliness you get
[
And it's fitting, he's barely living a day he'll soon forget
[muted strings strumming]
[
That's one more time around, and there is not a sound
[
He's lying dead, clutching Benjamins, never put the money down
[
He's stiffening, we're all whistling, a man we'll soon forget

I didn't realize the comments wouldn't stack the chords vertically. They are (G string first, C string second, etc.) E Major: 4 4 4 7 and A Major: 6 4 5 4.

Hello,
Glad this tab was up, as it's a great song. And it's fun to learn now that I've finally purchased a ukulele after playing guitar for years.
Actually, there's really only one part that sounds incorrect to me.
In the chorus of the song, the second two chords sound like E & A to my ear, not D7 & G7 as written. It would look like this:
[F][G7]
That's...
[E][A]
The...
[F][G7][C][F][C]
He's...
The E Major I hear is:
7
4
4
4
The A Major would be:
4
5
4
6
Thanks for reading, and keep up the good work.
