VERSE.
There are two guitars playing here, one plays a similar pattern to the first two bars of the intro
The other seems to just be playing the chords
[C#]Sugar smile [B]savvy the [F#]king of the [F#]kerb
Got a [C#]temper in the [B]style of a b[F#]omb[F#]
Got his [C#]friends in his [B]pocket and s[F#]afe behind b[F#]ars
All the [C#]local boys [B]know what he's [F#]done
[E]He turns [F#]it on
[E]He turns [F#]it on
[E]He turns [F#]it on[F#]
Lead Guitar Fill in to the chorus:
 
 e|--------------6-----7---|
 B|------7-----------------|
 G|3/4/6-----4/6---6/8-----|
 D|------------------------|
 A|------------------------|
 E|------------------------|

Bar 5th block chords will do here, up to the very last F# in the chorus, e.g.
B: e|- D#m: e|- G#m: e|-
B|- B|- B|-
G|6 G|8 G|13
D|6 D|8 D|13
A|4 A|6 A|11
E|- E|- E|-
and so on

And [E]everybody [D#m]knows what their [F#]worth
