Keyboard -- specifically ORGAN
Keys/Organ Video Tutorial
The sound used in this part of the song comes from an organ called a Hammond B3, which is the coolest rock/blues/jazz/gospel organ available. The best ones were made in the 1950s and 1960s and used this big speaker cabinet called a Leslie Cabinet. The Leslie has 2 speakers that rotate and the speed of the rotation can be manipulated by the organist. This effect is 100% ear candy and makes any rock band sound 1000% times cooler!
Hammond B3 w/ Leslie
Please take a few minutes to watch this Hammond B3 demo I quickly found!
People refurbish these and they generally sell for $5000 or more depending on the condition.

Verse
A Bm C Bm
Ive been run down
Ive been lied to
And I dont know why I let that mean woman make me a fool
She took all my money
Wrecked my new car
And now shes with one of my good time buddies drinking in some cross town bar.

Verse 2:
A Bm C Bm
My friends tell me
That I've been such a fool
And I have to stand by and take it, babe all for loving you.
I drown myself in sorrow.
Cause I look at what you've done.
But nothing seems to change. The bad times stay the same, and I can't run.
