The chorus and verse are both arpeggiated barre chords. These are the notes I think they're playing, but the guitar is pretty hard to hear for most of the song Verse:

For the bridge ("I speak in monotone...") play Bb and C, strummed normally.
E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||- BLIMPS GO 90 E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||-
The verse is a pretty simple little riff. Play this thing a few times:
eE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||------- BE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||------- GE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||------- D---4-------4------ A-2---2E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||- E-------0-0---0----

^ (This is kind of a grace note played as you move your fingers from the G#5 to F#5.) The transition from verse to chorus goes:
eE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|--------|| BE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|--------|| GE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|--------|| D----4-----4E|E|--------|| A--2---2-1---1-2---- EE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|--------||
The chorus is just two note power chords:
G#5 F#5 E5
G#5 E5 F#5 The violin part is basically four notes played in different orders.
e---11---9E|E|E|E|--------||--|| is the first riff; the violin plays these notes BE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||12---9-- throughout the rest of the song. E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||--- CLOSER YOU AD E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||---
The verse is just a change between C and G barre chords. The chorus is G C Bm Bb A. For "Now you can see the boys" play C then B. (It might be C then G, I'm not really sure.) The "dreaming, scheming" riff is this:
e-----0-0-0-------0-0-0E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-|||| B---0-------0---0-------0-----0-0-0-------0-0-0E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E GE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||-----0-------0---0---- DE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|------ A-0E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||0E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--- EE|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||---0E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|-- e|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||--- B||E|E|--------||--||-||||- G|---0E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|--------||--|| D|--||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E A|-----||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E| E|------||--||-||||0E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||E|E|-- |E|E|--------||--||-||||--- E|E|E|E|--------||--||-|||| ------||-

E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||- LITTLE WHIRL E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||-
The verse riff is: D A G E G A The chorus is: G A End on A D.
E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-|||| MY SON COOL E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||
The intro is: B D
B D E The verse is: A D A F# E F# D B D And then repeat the intro.
E|E|E|E|--------||--|| PIMPLE ZOO E|E|E|E|--------||--||
The first part is E then G. The break in between the two main parts is B G# D#. Then the final part is E then Db.
E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||--- A SALTY SALUTE E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||---
The guitar part to this is simply D and E. However, I think it sounds better to follow the baseline, especially if you're just playing alone. In that case, the chords are: D A D G F# E F# G.
E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||------- WATCH ME JUMPSTART E|E|E|E|E|E|E|E|--------||--||-||||-------
The opening riff is 3 barre chords: E F# A F# E For the verse, I play the same chords, only leave the low E string open and alternate it with the chords like this:
e-0-----0E|E|E|E|--------||--||2-----2E|E|E|E|--------||--||5------ B-0-----0E|E|E|E|--------||--||2-----2E|E|E|E|--------||--||5------ G-1-----1E|E|E|E|--------||--||3-----3E|E|E|E|--------||--||6------ D-2-----2E|E|E|E|--------||--||4-----4E|E|E|E|--------||--||7------ A-2-----2E|E|E|E|--------||--||4-----4E|E|E|E|--------||--||7------ E---0-0---0-0-...----0-0---0-0-...----0-0--
Followed by the main riff. For the "Shoot me down part" play E followed by A. Then, for "Cause I won't be around" play a Dbm. The little riff that goes on there is just the B string; while making the Dbm, lift your middle finger on and off, like this B-5-5-5-4-5. The rest of the bridge goes like this:
F# E As you run from the places you love I remember the faces that cry
C D C And they're pulling me back so I have to die Comments, corrections, etc.
