Note that you'll most probably won't be able to play the three uppermost string all of the time.
I tried to comprehend the lyrics:
verse [all verses play the above transcribed riff]:
My infatuation with the min(i)on of my life
When I defied description and my mind was brutalized
Shake, shake, shake with too much joy and too much memory
Who's that rowling in the hate it may be jesus or the cavalry.
Call up holy, holy, ... love!
{section: Verse 2}
So in desperation, caught by the swallowing man
Flower (or flour) your father, I can beat you heart
slap you down with the palm of my hand
We could be so ambitious,
take it not for long
Run to the hills and wait for me
I'll meet your there at dawn
{section: Chorus 2}
same chords):
Me, I wait for no one
Me, in every single time
Me, I love that last forever
Me, I love that so divine
Holy bla bla...

Run, run, run to the scene of the crime
I can't stand that noise in my ears
But I'll soon be praying
[I hope to correct the last part of the chords and a part of the lyrics soon My
computer is behaving oddly and I don't dare startup notepad to copy paste everything there,
firefox might crash...]

No it's [G]me and my ad[A]renaline, just[G] chopped me like a [A]lion
