You've both got the names of the chords correct, but to reproduce Angus' sound
and feeling, you've got to get the fingering correct:

Verse
She was a fast machine
She kept my motor clean
She was the best damn woman I had ever seen
She has the sightless eyes
Telling me no lies
And knocking me out with those American thighs
Takin' more than her share
Had me fighting for air
She told me to come but I was already there
Cos the walls start shakin'
The ground was quakin'
My mind was achin'
And we were making it and.......
Chorus : G A B C B D A B C B :

CHORUS Verse:
You shook me all night long (repeat)
Verse
Working double time on the seduction line
She was one of a kind, she was mine all mine
Had to cool it down to take another round
Then I got back in the ring to take another swing
Cos the walls start shakin'... etc...
(I play the D chord part of the intro on the 5th frett, but it's more or
less the same notes. -Tim Morris )
