Few Quick Points:

This is based on the version on his myspace, it's quoted that it's from the 'Japanese 
of "Love Is Hell"'

There's a bass guitar as well as a lead guitar playing riffs in the background. The 
i've put here does go with the song, but the bass guitar makes it seem a bit off at times, 
you listen you'll hear what i mean.

Changing on the first chord the bass guitar (relative to an acoustic) goes:

D --------------|
G --2--0--------|
E -------4--0---|

And then leads in to the second pattern, so little things like that make it seem off at times.
