I'm not much on writing down notes, but I think these are the notes of the
little riff that goes with the E-A-G-D chords: E E F# G#, A A B C#, D D E F#,
G G F# F, E E F# G#, A A B C#, D D E F#, G! I hope that's understandable.

E            A         D             G   E-A-G-D
Picture yourself when you're getting on

E           A        D        G   E-A-G-D
Sit by the fireside pondering on

C              F                C
Picture book, pictures of your mama

F              C      F          C
Taken by your papa a long time ago

C                 F               C
Picture book, of people with each other

    F                    C        F          C
To prove they loved each other a long time ago

Bb           C
La la la la la la
Bb           C
La la la la la la
         E-A-D-G           E-A-D-G
Picture book,     picture book
         E-A-D-G           E-A-D-G
Picture book,     picture book

... this one is ok until the end ...

[...]
         E-A-D-G(should be  A-D-G-C)           E-A-D-G (A-D-G-C)
Picture book,     picture book
         E-A-D-G (A-D-G-C)          E-A-D-G (A-D-G-C)
Picture book,     picture book

(then it goes back to the original riff in key of E)

The correction cited at the bottom of the page is correct! There needs to 
be one other correction though.  After the line: "...of people with each 
other, to prove they loved each other a long time ago," they go into the 
"ba ba ba ba ba ba" section. That section needs to stay with the F to C 
pattern that was previously established.  

Also, at the end of the first two lines of each verse, the set of chords 
played there should be: E, A, D, G insted of E, A, G, D. Just a matter of 
flip-flopping the G and D that was originally cited.
