So basically all the song goes through three chords: F, Am & Dm. I play them this way:
*This one is the same as Dm, but sounds better in certain parts.
F Am Dm Dm*
e|----1-------------5---------------10--------------5------------|
B|----1-------------5---------------10--------------6------------|
G|----2-------------5---------------10--------------7------------|
D|----3-------------7---------------12--------------7------------|
A|----3-------------7---------------12--------------5------------|
E|----1-------------5---------------10--------------5------------|
The first part of the song goes around playing the three first chords only with
the 1st, 3rd and 6th string.
So it goes like this:
Riff 1:
She may contain the urge to run away
e|----1----------------------5-----------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----2----------------------5-----------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----1----------------------5-----------------------------------------|
But hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
e|---------------10--------------------------10------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------10--------------------------10------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------10--------------------------10-----------(10-10-10-10)|
Cetirizine, your fever's gripped me again
e|----1----------------------5-----------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----2----------------------5-----------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----1----------------------5-----------------------------------------|

(keep doing this)
Do you know where the wild things go
They go along to take your honey
Break down, now weep, build up, breakfast
Now let's eat, my love, my love love love
Chorus: (using the chords I say up there)
F Am
Muscle to muscle and toe to toe
Dm* F
The fear has gripped me, but here I go
F Am
My heart sinks as I jump up
Dm* F
Your hand grips hand as my eyes shut
F Am Dm* F F Am Dm* F F
& ah, ah, ah, a-huh. Ah, ah, ah, a-huh (huh).
Riff 2:
Just do it with the chords I say up there.

Dm Dm
They go along to take your honey
F Am
Break down, now sleep, build up, breakfast
Dm Dm
Now let's eat, my love, my love love love
F Am
She bruises, coughs, she splutters
Dm Dm
Pistol shots hold her down with soggy clothes and breezeblocks
F Am Dm Dm
She’s morphine, queen of my vaccine, my love, my love love love
Chorus: (using the chords I say up there)
F Am
Muscle to muscle and toe to toe
Dm* F
The fear has gripped me, but here I go
F Am
My heart sinks as I jump up
Dm* F
Your hand grips hand as my eyes shut

& ah, ah, ah, a-huh. Ah, ah, ah, a-huh (huh).
