The powerchords are based on the bass line. But you can also play the Dm C G F chords instead. 
A wah wah pedal can help to reproduce the oppressive atmosphere.

[Intro]
(riff)
(drums)
(bass)
D5 E5 C5 D5 G5 A5 F5 C5    (x4)

[Verse 1]
Dm                     C               G      F
Movement, no movement, just a falling bird
Dm                  C               G      F
Cold as it hits the bleeding ground
   Dm                    C                     G      F
He lived and died, catch sight, cover me with earth
Dm               C                  G      F
Draped in black, static white sound

[Chorus]
Bb                          C
A day without substance, a change of thought
Bb                           C
An atmosphere that rots with time
Bb                      C
Colours that flicker in water
         Dm        C  G  F
A short term effect

[Instrumental]
D5 E5 C5 D5 G5 A5 F5 C5    (x4)

[Verse 2]
Dm                      C             G                  F
Scream, as she tries to push him over, helpless and sick
Dm                     C                    G      F
With teeth of madness, jump jump dance and sing,
Dm                     C                G                 F
Sideways across the desert, a charcoal face bites my hand
Dm               C               G              F
Time is sweet, derange and disengage everything

[Chorus]
Bb                          C
A day without substance, a change of thought
Bb                            C
The atmosphere that rots with time
Bb                      C
Colours that flicker in water
         Dm        C  G  F
A short term effect

[Outro]
               Dm  C  G  F
A short term effect
   Dm             C                G               F
An echo, and a stranger's hand, a short term effect
   Dm             C                G               F
An echo, and a stranger's hand, a short term effect
