Under Pressure chords by David Bowie

Chords with lyrics

Queen & David Bowie - Under Pressure - 1981

I just do not understand how this tab isn't already on the net.
Either way it was a pain in the backside to transcribe, so I hope you

That more than famous bass-riff:
G----------------------|
D----------------------|
A-5--5--5--5--5-5-5--0-|
E----------------------| and so on

Guitar riff and subsequent VERSE CHORDS:
