Tune one half step down. The chords are not relative to this. An E chord would in 
fact be an Eb. Listen to the song for timing et cetera. 

-INTRO-

play once:

e--------------|
B--------------|
G--------------|
D--77-9--------|
A--55-7--------|
E--------------|

Intro chord sequence (open chords). 
Listen to the song for timing and picking, it's fairly easy. 
(Note that this progression is the same as in Bruce Springsteen's 'Radio Nowhere' 
and in the Cranberries' 'Zombie')

Em, C, G, D (4x)


-VERSE-, these are power chords:

E5 (022xxx@1)          C5 (x355xx@1)       D5 (xx023x@1)             E5 (022xxx@1)          D5 (xx023x@1)name="chord_022xxx@1">E5
You, you're living your life when you're dreaming 
         E5 (022xxx@1)           C5 (x355xx@1)       D5 (xx023x@1)      E5 (022xxx@1)       D5 (xx023x@1)name="chord_022xxx@1">E5
Late at night you're hearing my voice in your head


-PRE-CHORUS-

G5 (355xxx@1)                  A5It's (x022xx@1)time you see what it's all about 

G5 (355xxx@1)                          A5 (x022xx@1)  B5There's (x244xx@1)one cure and there's no way out


-CHORUS-

C (x32010@1)               G (320003@1) DI (xx0232@1)don't wanna hear you might 
There's a fire gettin' near and sparks ignite 
If you're ready for a wild ride 

(Here you play the same open chords as in the intro chord sequence)
                       Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)  G (320003@1)  DLet (xx0232@1)me hear you say yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah) 
        Em (022000@1)   C (x32010@1)  G (320003@1)  DSay (xx0232@1)yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah) 


-BRIDGE-

FWho (133211@1)knows where we'll be in the morning 
C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)   I know we're here tonight 
C (x32010@1)  F (133211@1)  Get uptight and it all gets so boring 
DIt (xx0232@1)takes two to make you come alive 
C (x32010@1)D (xx0232@1)  Take my hand, kiss your fears goodbye 
C (x32010@1) D (xx0232@1) There's something here that we can't deny

-During the SOLO, play the verse chord sequence-


-Interlude-
                           C (x32010@1) G (320003@1)  DWell, (xx0232@1)let me hear you say it 
                            C (x32010@1) G (320003@1) DWell, (xx0232@1)I wanna hear you say it 
                              Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)    DWell, (xx0232@1)let me hear you say yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah) 
        Em (022000@1)C (x32010@1) G (320003@1)   DSay (xx0232@1)yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah) 


And then finish the whole thing up by repeating the chorus, and conclude with a nice C5 D5

When put together you play this (the conventional rock n roll anthem recipe):
Intro
Verse
Pre Chorus
Chorus
Verse
Pre Chorus
Chorus
Bridge
Solo
Pre Chorus
Interlude
Repeat Chorus
