the verse:

E--------------|--------------|
B--------0-----|----------0---|
G-----2--------|-------2------|
D--------------|--------------|
A--2--------2--|--2h4---------|
E--------------|--------------|

Repeat that until it changes

chorus:

E--------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|
B--------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|
G---------0----|---------2-----|-------------|-0--------0--|
D------2-------|------2-----0--|-----3-------|-------------|
A---0--------0-|-0h2-----------|-------------|-------------|
E--------------|---------------|--1-----1--3-|----3--4-----|

The outro thingy at the end uses these chords

(The voicings I use seem to fit, but they could be wrong)

D5 C A Amaj7 Bbmaj7 G

E----X---|---X---|---X---|---X---|---X---|---X---|
B----3---|---1---|---2---|---2---|---3---|---0---|
G----2---|---0---|---2---|---1---|---2---|---0---|
D----0---|---2---|---2---|---X---|---x---|---0---|
A----0---|---3---|---0---|---0---|---1---|---2---|
E----X---|---X---|---X---|---X---|---X---|---3---|

It goes like this:

[D5] They don't play slint on the radio

[C] they don't play sentridoh

[A] they don't play [D5] Zappa (in between the A and D

[A] they don't play [D5] Beefhart strum the open strings)

[Amaj7] they don't play [Bbmaj7] Can

[Amaj7] they don't play the [Bbmaj7] Residents

[C] they don't even [G] play

[C] the Velvet Under[G]ground

[C] Ronaldo and the [G] loaf or

[C] Bongos bass and [G] Bob

The end part is just a palm muted Bb5 power chord.
