i like to play the verse chords with as many fingers as i can. (does 
that make any sense?) i think it allows for a more controled muting.  
it also sounds good to barre them.  of course it also sounds goo to playy 
the bass part of the verses.

it goes like this:

   Fm                Bbm               C                 Fm

E|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
B|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
G|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
D|------------------|-------3-------3-|-------5-------5-|------------------|
A|-------3--------3-|-1-3/4---1-3/4---|-3-5/7---3-5/7---|-------3--------3-|
E|-1-3/4----1-3/4---|-----------------|-----------------|-1-3/4----1-3/4---|

        repeat that a couple times

        (words: [Fm]all night long on the broken glass
                [Bbm]living in a medicine chest
                [C]mediteromainian hotel back
                [Fm]sprawled across a roll top desk.
                etc...)


the chorus is like this:

                [Bbm7]sell me one of those if i shave my head
                [Eb]get me out of town is what fire ball said
                [Ab]never trust a man in a blue trench coat
                [Ab]never drive a car when you're dead
                
                [Bm*]Saturday's a festival, Friday's a gem
                [C]dye your hair yellow and raise your hem
                [Fm*]follow me to Beulah's on dry creek road
                [Fm*]i just got to wear the dress that my baby done sowed

for the last two Fm chords, i like to play this:
(these are straight quarter notes)

   Fm*                          Fm*
