For the verses, use Am and Amsus2

Verse 1
Am
Both sides, and softly came the growl from both sides
Am
and if his whisper splits the mist
Am
just think of what he's capable of with his kiss

Verse 2
Am
nice try, you cannot turn away but nice try
Am
turned your legs to little building blocks
Am
and with his index finger flicks you on your socks

Interlude: Am and Amsus2

Verse 3
Am
I'll go high pitched, he'll talk and make you voice sound high pitched
Am
dread to think if he got you on your own
Am
and whispered in your ear in that baritone

Verse 4
Am
It's the same stone, his heart was cut out of the same stone
Am                                                                        C  B
that they used to calve his jaw, it's impossible not to feel inferior

Chorus
             Dm                        Am
And he could catapult you back to your daddy
            Em                Am
or into any hissing misery
            Dm                           Am
and he will tear you out the day after a triumph is as hollow
       Em                   Am
as the day after a tragedy
          Dm                   Am
he'll extinguish any chance of escape
                          Em                  Am
when he slaps you on your arse or kisses your nape
         Dm       Am          Em      A#
and he's leaving without saying 'Bye'

Chorus 2 (same chords as chorus 1):
And you would queue up to listen to him pissing
And hang around to watch some poor girl bluff
And then they chase him down the avenue
Incessently pestering him to let him join the club
He knows how to put a cork in the foot
And just how to shut up the charming ones of us
And they've seen him talking to your lady friend

Bridge
          F         G  Am
There's a dust track     waiting for betrayal
F            Dm         G                G#
  Where he'll teach you all the bits they   missed

Ending (chords of verse)
Nice try, you cannot turn away but nice try
Nice try, you cannot turn away but nice try
Nice try, you cannot turn away but nice try
Nice try, you cannot turn away but nice try
                             C  B
You cannot turn away
