I've been working on it lately, it's far from being perfect not too far, i hope.
I'd like to receive some feedback/corrections.

Notes: some of you will surely prefer to shift the whole sequence by a tone
    or two.

    the chords are based on very simple tabs found for the song's riffs,
    which i don't post now.

The Chords:

    eBGDAE
Amaj7Amaj7  012100
E MajorE    001220
F#F#   22344X or 223442 (full barre')
Nochord 11344X or 113441
F#Maj7F#maj7 12344X or 123441
BB    2444XX or 244422
C#C#   4666XX or 466644
A#A#   66788X or 667886

Notes: It's easiest to play with capo on fret #1, but then the Amaj7-E sequence
    is disabled (either find new fingerings for them or let them be shifted
    to their corresponding #s [which is weaker])
    The full barre' versions of the chords are preferable, imo.

    Full lyrics available at either ftp.uwp.edu or ftp.maths.tcd.ie

There are two main chord riffs:

#1 (fast)

F#F#  F#F#  Nochord F#Maj7F#maj7 F#F# F# Nochord F#Maj7F#maj7
I've heard them   all,  no mercy   shown

BB BB  BB   BB BB  BB BB C#C#  A#A#
Heaven knows it has to be this time

(repeat)
--

#2
(which is also applicable to the NO intro, that is play it before the 1st verse,
 figuring the rhythm for yourselves)

Amaj7Amaj7    E MajorE
Watching Forever

(i think it's better to play notes while singing this, the chords suit the intro
 better)
--

That's as far as i got now. Again, i'd love to get feedback on it, as i fear
 there is room for corrections.

P.S. oh, almost forgot... A augmentedA BONUS TRACK!!!

   By complete coincidence, i found yesterday the rhythm chords for "Walked in
   Line" - very simple progression-regression (with standard barre' chords):

   FF G+G A augmentedA G+G FF

   Again, figure out the rhythm alone (long durations on the Fs and As, very
   short on the G+G)

   Have fun!
