 B5
        What are you staring at
 B5
        In that hospital bed
 B5            E5    F#5
        Let me explain
 B5                     E5       F#5
 I wasn't thinking about anything
         B              C#m7        E          F#
 Then it hit me that Montana was really just a leg
          G#m        E           C#m          F#
 With the round part just the way you would expect
        B               C#m7          E        F#
 And it started with a feeling that ended in a leg
         G#m            E /  F#    B
 And it seemed to me Montana was a leg
  E / F#      B         C#m7           E          F#
        A  le-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-g!
 B       C#m7   E      F#
     Now     I        get      it
 B     C#m7       E    F#
  I'll tell the person next to me
 B       C#m7   E       F#
  And then haul off and die
 
 
 (That's basically it.  The rest of the parts all use these chords.  Enjoy.)

This is the way I play it, personally, it's a lot easier and more fitting especially for acoustic guitar.

        What are you staring at
 G 
        In that hospital bed
 G             C     D
        Let me explain
 G                      C        D
 I wasn't thinking about anything
         G              Am          C          D
 Then it hit me that Montana was really just a leg
          Em         C           Am           D
 With the round part just the way you would expect
        G               Am            C        D
 And it started with a feeling that ended in a leg
         Em             C /  D     G
 And it seemed to me Montana was a leg
  C / D       G         Am             C          D
        A  le-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-g!
 G       Am     C      D
     Now     I        get      it
 G     Am         C    D
  I'll tell the person next to me
 G       Am     C       D
  And then haul off and die

G
I won't need this
Electric folding bed
      C    D
I can lose these
G    C         D
Tiny pill cups now

          G              Am       C             D
'Cause it hit me that Montana was really just a leg
         Em        C       Am            D
And then just like that it all fell into place
      G                 Am        C              D
And I don't think I can stand any longer in this bed
        Em             C /  D     G
Since I figured out Montana was a leg

  C / D       G         Am             C          D
        A  le-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-g!
 G       Am     C      D
     Now     I        get      it
G   Am     C        D     G
  I wasn't sure but now I know
    Am    C       D
And I can finally go

     G      Am          C      D
Give out my lungs, give up and tell
         Em            C          Am       D
The information to the man in the next bed down
       G                  Am          C                 D
In the morning he'll tell someone the last thing that I said
       Em               C /  D     G
When I told him that Montana was a leg

C   /   D     G                 Am         C               D
   From the beginning there was something about it staring me
       Em     C           Am               D
In the face I should have guessed it right away
        G              Am           C          D
When it started with a feeling that ended in a leg
       Em              C /  D     G
And it seemed to me Montana was a leg

  C / D       G         Am             C          D
        A  le-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-g!
 G       Am     C      D
     Now     I        get      it

I'll tell the person next to me
I'll say Montana was
A leg
Now I get it
I wasn't sure
But now I know
And I can finally go
