I saw someone's tab and it wasn't quite right. Here's my version. I've got the main rift
parts and the bass guitar which keeps the song rhythm so it has to be there.

Standard tuning for guitar 1

Intro

'Rift 1'
|---------------|
|---------------| x4
|-77776-79-7777-|

The bass joins in after 1 bar with a solid D rhythm.

Now because there's no low D chord on a normal guitar you need to tune your Top E string
down to a low D note to give you that solid bass. If you're not sure how just Tune your
top string down so it sounds the same as your D string but lower.

Guitar 2 Intro (tuned with drop down D)

D chord

D 0000000000000000-| x3
A 0000000000000000-|
D 0000000000000000-|

After the 4 bar intro the verses keep going with exactly the same 'Rift 1' on guitar1,
but guitar2 plays chords D G A D:-

D (xx0232@1)              G (320003@1)              A (x02220@1)              Ge (320003@1)--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Verse 1

DOn (xx0232@1)the floor of Tokyo
           GOr (320003@1)down in London town to go, go
         AWith (x02220@1)the record selection

And the mirror's reflection
    GI'm (320003@1)dancing with myself

DWhen (xx0232@1)there's no-one else in sight
       GIn (320003@1)the crowded lonely night
       AWell (x02220@1)I wait so long

For my love vibration
        GAnd (320003@1)I'm dancing with myself

('Rift 1' cuts out on the chorus so guitar1 just plays the same chords as the verse)

Chorus
   DOh (xx0232@1)dancing with myself
   GOh (320003@1)dancing with myself
             AWell (x02220@1)there's nothing to lose

And there's nothing to prove
        GI'll (320003@1)be dancing with myself
        D(Let chord ring)

Verse (Rift 1 again)
     DIf (xx0232@1)I looked all over the world
            GAnd (320003@1)there's every type of girl
         ABut (x02220@1)your empty eyes

Seem to pass me by
         GLeave (320003@1)me dancing with myself

DSo (xx0232@1)let's sink another drink
             G'Cause (320003@1)it'll give me time to think
     AIf (x02220@1)I had the chance

I'd ask the world to dance
            GAnd (320003@1)I'll be dancing with myself

Chorus (Just play chords)
   DOh (xx0232@1)dancing with myself
   GOh (320003@1)dancing with myself
             AWell (x02220@1)there's nothing to lose

And there's nothing to prove
        GI'll (320003@1)be dancing with myself
           D'(hit once)
Oh oh a-oh
           G'
Oh oh a-oh
           D'

 Dancing with myself
GDancing (320003@1)with myself
DDancing (xx0232@1)with myself
GDancing (320003@1)with myself
D (xx0232@1)G.... Etc. (the song fades out with the D and G Chords)

At the end guitar 2 also does a kind of blues ending which goes
DD AA DD AA DD AA DD AA
GG DD GG DD GG DD GG DD etc... (This is on the drop down D string by the way) You don't
have to put it in but it sounds alright.

That's it. Hope you found it OK. Think it's pretty close. Comment if you think it's good 
or bad. Cheers!
