Okay, the chords for the intro are as follows (all barre):
G|Em|B|D

The lead guitar then kicks in with this:
e|------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------|
A|--333-2222-333-222/-----------------------|
E|------------------------------------------|

Then slides up to play:
e|--------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------9-999-10-9-7-------7-9-10-9-999-7-9-10-999---|
A|----10-9-7--------------7-777---------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------|

There is no guitar for the first part of the verse, here:
While I'm away, you can
Let the mouse go down on you
Let the mouse do what I do

The chords for the verse are exactly the same as the intro:
          G                        Em
If I was there, but you'd better explain
             B               D
That I have vendetta in my narrow bones
     B           D
And a vindictive eye
     B                   D
Of my jealousy I have no control, no control

The chorus introduces a new chord pattern:
Bb                                    G
I'll never get your bullet out of my head now, baby
Bb                                   G
I'll never get your bullet out of my mind
Dm                                    G
I'll never get your bullet out of my head now, baby
Dm                                   G
I'll never get your bullet out of my mind
G                                   F
How can I get your bullet out of my head now
                         C             G
I have no control, but I try, yeah I try

Here a new riff is introduced and played four times:
e|--------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------|
A|---------------2222----0-2------------------|
E|--3333-0-3-5-3------00----------------------|

You then go back and play the intro riff twice, then play the same verse chords as
before except to these lyrics:
So I'd better explain that I have a
Red vendetta in my narrow bones
A wicked indicative eye
Of my yellow jealousy I have no control, no control

The chorus is then played up to "How can I get..." then this is played three times:
G             F                   C
Get out of my head, get out of my head now

Finally:
              G
Get out of my mind.
