Here are the chords to plaid coat. It is essentially the rhythm pattern
below that I have tried to denote in the lyrics to a moderate degree of
sucess. For the bridge I think it could actually be a C/G chord. For
what it's worth, this is my favorite gourds song. 

D D D D / G G C9 G 
 

[D] Started out [G]late 

In my [C9] Dirty [G] Plaid Coat [D]

Watched my heel [G]

lift the [C9]dead sa[G]tin dress [D]

from the ground [G] 

(lick here that i know some of and will post when I have it all.)

[sames as above]
One day I touched it with my hands 

and it scattered like scared birds 

By 3a.m. they were pidgeons 

with drinking problems and bad luck 

on God's front porch 

[bridge]

where the [C]wind 

is dense with insects [D]

where the [C]wind 

is dense with bugs [D] 

Made of coffee and guitars [G] [C9] [G][D]
