I'll only plot the first verse, the one interlude, and the chorus. The rest of the song 
the same progressions.

Verse:

Am                                                C/G
He said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down

Em                                 Riff1 (Am)
I'm gonna put it six feet underground

Am                                              C/G
He said I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall

Em                                            Riff1 (Am)
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls

repeat until

Interlude:

Fmaj   G6   Fmaj   G6
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah...

Chorus:

Fmaj                                           D/F#
Honey, all the movements you're starting to make

                                Fmaj
See me crumble and fall on my face

                                 D/F#
And I know the mistakes that I made

        Bb                        Fmaj
See it all disappear without a trace

                                  D/F#
And they call as they beckon you on

              Bb                   Am C/G Em Riff1
They said start as you mean to go on

Am                          C/G  Em Riff1 Am C/G Em
Start as you mean to go on
