Lonely Grill chords

Song:  Lonely Grill
Artist:  Lonestar
Album:  Lonely Grill
From:  Chris Green (chris.green@thedoghousemail.com)

intro: Ebm, C# (riff), Ebm, C# (riff)
verse 1:
Ebm
Box speaker talking outta tune

Two for one at the Blue Lagooon
         C# (riff)
Another lost and found
Ebm
Bartender takes another pass

Puts the salt on the rim of another glass
         C# (riff)
Then he sets it down
G#                          F#
I know every color of every neon sign
G#                             F#
Flashin out a heartache in the back of my mind

Chorus:
C#
Down at the Lonely Grill
G#         
Got nothing but time to kill
       F#
At the end of every day
C#         
I sit in a corner booth
Bbm              B          F#/Bb
Do nothing but think of you
         A             B
and the love we threw away
C#
And I guess I always will
G#                   C# (riff)
Down at the Lonely Grill

verse 2: (same progression as verse 1)
Sad eyed waitress called Betty Lynn
Got her order pad and her ball point pen
and says what'll it be
I said a tall glass of cold regret
A full order of loneliness
Like everyday this week
I'll shoulder my pride and I'll drink it down
Another smoke filled evening with no fire to be found

repeat chorus but instead of playing C# at "grill" go to F#, then repeat 
from "I sit in a corner booth....."  with chord changes as listed above.  
Play 'riff' four times at the end of chorus.

I suggest hearing the record to be able to learn this riff that I have 
been talking about.  It's no biggy, but it will be tough to learn with 
nothing to go on.

Here's some chord diagrams if you need them:
(standard tuning)

--X--   --X--    --4--    --2--    --X--
--6--   --4--    --6--    --4--    --1--
--8--   --6--    --6--    --4--    --3--
--8--   --6--    --5--    --3--    --3--
--7--   --6--    --4--    --2--    --2--
--6--   --4--    --4--    --2--    --1--

             A            B
           --X--        --X--
           --0--        --2--
           --2--        --4-- 
           --2--        --4--
           --2--        --4--
           --0--        --2--

Basic stuff, right?  The only tricky chord is the F#/Bb.  If you don't 
know what that means, it's 'F sharp with a bass note of B flat.'  On the 
piano it's simple.  Play F# with the right hand, Bb with the left (but 
only one note, not the chord of Bb).  The bass player would simply play 
Bb.  Kinda difficult for a guitar player though.  What I do is just play 
F# and not worry about it, but if you want the band to sound good (if 
you play in one), you need somebody covering it.

Again, to clarify things, I would listen to the track on CD or something.
