Adelaide Chords
Adelaide by Chadwick Stokes is a moderately challenging guitar song played in the key of A. It uses the chords A, D, E and F#m. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
This is based off of a video I watched of Chad playing it.
I am almost positive all of the chords are correct.
The song is played with all barred chords(below) and palm muting.

Intro:
A
verse 1:
A
He fell in love with a reservation girl
A
During the time of the sugarbeat harvest
A D
They moved out west to the coast where he built her a bed
A
Made of shagbark from Sherwood forest
E
And life was good until she told him goodbye
D
Said they was better off living separate lives
A
And maybe they was
PreChorus:
