I tabbed this frame by frame from this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH9gcaJjG_U
Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Chords are relevant to the fret numbers played AFTER down-tuning,
and not the actual root note, since this is the easier for most
guitarists. If you are playing in standard tuning (or on a piano
etc.) then transpose all chords down 1 half-step using the
'Ultimate Guitar' transposer above ^ to be musically accurate.
'F#m' = Fm in standard tuning. Watch/listen to the video for
timing and strumming patterns, its not difficult to figure out.
Lyrics with chords are below.

The KROQ performance medleys into a few lines of 'Supersonic' by
Oasis at the end - this is optional. Chords for that can be
searched for, or you can work them out yourself!
The 'Le Figaro' acoustic performance is slightly different. Try
this alterative version (Pre-Verse 1 and Verse 1 only) and see
which you prefer.
