That song is pretty simple.  I'm not gonna do a full post for it, but here are some chords that can help you.  I think the key is Db, but I'm not sure, so I'll have the progression numbers beside the chords that way can put it in whatver key it's supposed to be in:

Key Db  LH/RH

Db / F-Ab-Db (1)  Lean-
Eb / Gb-Bb-Eb (2)  ing
F / Ab-Db-F (3)  on
Eb / Gb-Bb-Eb (2)  e-
Db / F-Ab-Db (1)  ver-
Eb / Gb-Bb-Eb (2)  la-
Db / F-Ab-Db (1)  sting
Gb / Db-Gb-Bb (4)  arms,
F / Eb-Ab-C (3)  leaning
Bb / F-Ab-Db (6)
Eb / Gb-Bb-Db (2)  on,
Ab / Gb-Bb-Db-F (5)
(repeat)

Verse (not sure of words):
*u can use the chords from the Chorus, or these I got down here

Db / F-Ab-Db (1)
some-
Eb / Gb-Bb-Db (2)
E / E-G-Bb-Db (#2)  one
F / F-Ab-Db (3)  here
thinks all
Ab / Gb-Cb-Eb (5)  hope
Db / F-Cb-Eb (1)  is
Gb / F-Bb-Db (4)  gone, they outta be
F / Eb-Ab-C (3)  leaning
Bb / F-Ab-Db (6)
Eb / Gb-Bb-Db (2)  on,
Ab / Gb-Bb-Db-F (5)
(repeat 3x)

Vamp:

Db / Gb-Cb-Eb (1)  lean-
Db / Gb-Bb-Db (1)  ing
Db / F-Ab-Db (1)  on,
Bb / Db-Gb-Bb (6)
Cb / Eb-Gb-Cb (b7)
Db / F-Ab-Db (1)
Bb / Db-Gb-Bb (6)
Cb / Eb-Gb-Cb (b7)

Cb / Gb-Cb-Eb (b7)  lean-
Gb / Fb-Ab-Bb-Db (4)  ing
Db / F-Ab-Db (1)  on.
Bb / Db-Gb-Bb (6)
Cb / Eb-Gb-Cb (b7)
Db / F-Ab-Db (1)
Bb / Db-Gb-Bb (6)
Cb / Eb-Gb-Cb (b7)

The inversions may be off, but those are the right chords.  Experiment with it until it sounds the way u want it to sound.
