You're welcome, Ellen. Sorry that I failed to treat the last line of the chorus. Here is the whole song, as approximately heard here:
Verse:
A E F#[A] D A A[F#] D[Bm] D[Esus4] (perhaps always meant to be E7)
A E F# D A Esus4[E7] A

Chorus:
G F#m A[C#m] D G F#m D D (perhaps meant to be E or A)
G A[F#m] C#m[A] D G A[F#m] Esus4 E
A Dadd2 A Dadd2 A Esus4 A

Interlude:
G7 C G7 Am F C G C E A D A D
I think the pianist was quite a bit off the role (and Mary Fahl's guitar is mercifully inaudible). He plays different chords in the repetitions, as indicated in brackets, for which I see no logical reason and therefore assume that at most one of each pair was intended by the composer.

Mary's voice has a lot of power and emotion, but the song would not be quite my taste even if it were performed correctly. If you like it, enjoy it.
