Here are the chords for this song as closely as I could figure them out.
He played it somewhat differently on Saturday Night Live, so I'm
including what I hear on the CD, but also noting where he seemed to do
things differently. Also take note of a weird chord that I don't know
the name of that I've marked with asterisks and included a crude tab of
how it is played.
Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmmm (CAPO ON 3RD FRET)

Once there was this kid who

Got into an accident and couldn't come to school
F G C
But when he finally came back
G C F C G
His hair had turned from black into bright white
G# C
He said that it was from when

Then there was this girl who

Wouldn't go to change with the girls in the change room
F C G C
But when they finally made her
G C F C G
They saw birthmarks all over her body
G# C
She couldn't quite explain it
G# C/F** F
They'd always just been there
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Dm C G
Both girl and boy were glad
Dm C G F G
One kid had it worse than that
Am G C
'Cause then there was a boy whose
F C G# C (Again, he plays G
Parents made him come right home directly after school
F C G C
And when they went to their church
G C F C G
They shook and lurched all over the church floor
G# C
He couldn't quite explain it
G# C/F** F
They'd always just gone there
CHORUS
Outro is the same progression as the bridge
Enjoy.
