To acheive Bob Mould's sound play this song with layered acoustic and
electric guitars.  Also, take a look at the barre chords and note which
ones have the B and e strings open.

(second verse, same as the first!)

River red, runs like lead
And the smell of kerosene in my head
Stuck here in this shithole
Reading foreign magazines instead

A        A

B
"But senor, I only have ten dollars;
B
Can't you spare me a room for the night?"
   A           G            E
We argue about currency and then
              C
He says I can stay for the night

        E      G    C     A
In this Panama City Motel
G F# E          G         C
I am out on the freeway again

A     B
A     B
A     B
A     B

(third verse)
A woman approaches in Barcelona
Walking down the Diagonalia
Spaghetti concrete overpasses
I keep grasping for something familiar

Chorus

Repeat 2nd part of Chorus again
then follow the "A    B" rhythm while singing ad lib
"Oh No... Don't you know I need a place to stay"
the song finishes on a sustained A
