The other chord file is close, but there are no Em's in this song.
There's a couple nice acoustic versions on youtube where
most of the embellishments go something like this:
(d is down strum, u is up)

Am                C         G         Am

Am C G
        Am           C                G          Am
You had fun, but you couldn’t get him out of the car
         C        G    Am   C      G     Am   C  G
I guess    mama’s boys        only go so far
         Am           C          G
You went in and put a record on
           Am                     C
To make it sound like someone was home
    G                Am     C       G          Am     C G
And thanked yourself    for pouring yourself a drink

Am                              C           G
Try to figure out and laugh yourself to the showers
Am                      C        G       
Burn yourself alive and join the monster squad
Am                  C         G                Am    C G
   They say in this place you can reinvent yourself
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-national/226604.html ]
Am                      C        G
   Well you’ve done it again, Virginia
Am                                C     G
   Made another masterpiece while I was dreaming
Am                     C         G
   How does it feel to feel like you?
          Am                                C           G
Brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, turn over

  Am          C        G
A cool, tall, drink of water
   Am
is all you ever wanted to be
            Am                 C             G       Am
And if you had another wish to wish you’d be fun and moving

        Am                               C            G
But you can’t talk to people, right? You can’t tell a story
       Am         C          G                    Am
You’re tall, long legged and your heart’s full of liquor
    C                    G             Am
And me and everybody are just ice in a glass

Am                              C           G
Try to figure out and laugh yourself to the showers
Am                      C        G       
Burn yourself alive and join the monster squad
Am                  C         G                Am    C G
   They say in this place you can reinvent yourself

Am                      C        G
   Well you’ve done it again, Virginia
Am                                C     G
   Made another masterpiece while I was dreaming
Am                     C         G
   How does it feel to feel like you?
          Am                                C           G
Brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, brilliant sugar, turn over
