INTRO:
Synth Riff based around D

PRE-VERSE RIFF:
C    C|G     |D C Bb F
F     |C  G G|
(Listen carefully to get the strum pattern.  To help, I broke it down
into four-beat bars.  It's easy once you listen to the song.)

VERSE:
C                               G
Tell me about your love affairs
D                      F
Tell me about your moral resignations
C      C  G       D   C   Bb  F
Oh.... uh-oh.... oh, oh, oh, oh
F   C       G
... Uh, oh, uh, oh

CHORUS RIFF (FAST PART):
C   E   Am   G

BRIDGE:
Am        E
I want to die today
* (see note below) C         G
And make love with you in my grave
Am        E
I want to die today
*                  C         G
And make love with you in my grave
E     Am    E      Am
Allllllllll, alllllllllll
E     Am    E      Am
Allllllllll, allll day

[NOTE: The above part designated by the star is a simple arpeggio part that alternates 
two notes: Eb (4th fret, second string) on the b-string and open high-e (1st string). 
the Eb first, then use straight eighth notes for four whole beats.
I.E. Eb - E - Eb - E - Eb - E - Eb - E]

Also, on the final "All day" part, skip the last Am chord and go straight to the Chorus riff:

C E Am G

CHORUS/OUTRO:
C      E              Am     G
Is this love of ours a lie?
C      E            Am      G
Is it killing me alive?
C      E                Am      G
Is this love of ours a lie?
C      E              Am      G
Is it chemically derived to ascertain
C      E                Am      G
And sequester all the pain
C      E               Am      G
Is this love of ours alive?

Same chords the rest of the way.
