This song is number 11 off of Stephen Malkmus' self-titled album w/ The Jicks
There is a constant chord progression throughout the verses that goes like
this-
D- x-5-7-7-x-x-
Db/D- x-4-7-7-x-x-
B/D- 7-x-7-7-x-x
A/D- 5-x-7-7-x-x
G- 3-5-5-x-x-x
F#/G- 2-5-5-x-x-x-
Em- 0-2-2-0-0-0
A- 0-0-2-2-2-0
Then the prechorus thing is an alternating G and D, dig?
Check it:
D Db/D B/D A/D G F#m/G
Jennifer ...
Em A
He's the ...
D Db/D B/D
She's 18,...
A/D G F#m/G

Em A

G D

G D

G D

G D

The chords for the next verse is identical until you get to "Let me out.."
then you do an A on the 7th fret with a little Chuck Berry alternation going
on like so:
5-7-7-x-x-x
5-7-7-x-x-x
5-9-x-x-x-x
5-7-7-x-x-x
then you do the D and G respective equivalents
A
Let me out ...
G
Let me ...
G
You got to ...
D
You ...
A
Let me ...
G
Out of ...
G
Out of here,...
A
running
Then it's the same as the beginning until the very end, there's a little
change on the very last chord
G
Neither one listens...
D
To ...
G
The Ess-...
D
And he sold ...
Em G
Jenny ...
Em G
And off ...
Em Eb...D

That's it. I've never seen him live, so I don't know if that's %100 correct.
Have a good time.
