Too Cool For School Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Fountains Of Wayne
I'll assume you know the rythm of the song and everything, so I'll just put the chords...

I know the chords are right, but they add some weird notes to it I tried to get 
them right, this is the best I could do...

  
C#7:  x4345x  
F#m7: 242222  or  242252
A:    x02220  or  577655
B:    x24442  or  799877
D:    xx0232  or  x57775
Dm:   xx0231  or  x57765
C#:   X46664
F#m^: xx4x55

This is what the 2nd guitar basically does while the other one plays the F#m7...

Actually it only does the F#m^ chord, but I added the other part for you to 
understand the rythm...
