This is how I play it on acoustic guitar, very fun and easy to do.
Start by strumming a D5:
e--x-|
B--3-|
G--2-|
D--0-|
A----|
E----|
Then
Riff 1:
(D) (Dsus)
e--x-x--2-3-2--|
B--3-3--3-3-3--|
G--2-2--2-2-2--|
D--0-0--0-0-0--|
A--------------|
E--------------| [x4]
(G)
e--x-x--2-3-2--|
B--0-0--0-0-0--|
G--0-0--0-0-0--|
D--0-0--0-0-0--|
A--2-2--2-2-2--|
E--3-3--3-3-3--| [x2]
(A)
e--x-x--2-3-2--|
B--2-2--2-2-2--|
G--2-2--2-2-2--|
D--2-2--2-2-2--|
A--0-0--0-0-0--|
E--------------| [x2]
Play this twice, then normal chords:
D
I was born into this life
(D)
To a drunk father and a rented wife
(D)
Who layed down in a concrete bed
(D)
Who layed dark thoughts inside my head
G
But they don't know
A
No they don't know
[Start playing the chords like in Riff 1 again]
D
Nothings wrong, nothings right
(D)
Nothing feels quite alright
G
Watching my fists turn white
A
Turn the lips into eyes
D
Nothings right, nothings wrong
(D)
Nothing makes me belong
G
All the kids sing swan songs
A
All the kids sing along with
(A)
me
Chorus [x2]
D D/B A D D/B A
I, I want to kill tonight
D D/B A
I want to kill tonight
D G A
Riff 1 [x2]
D
I was born into this world
(D)
Some kind of sinister little girl
(D)
I let jesus off the cross
(D)
And drag his face into the moss
G
But they don't know
A
No they don't know
Then just repeat the pre-chorus ('Nothings wrong', etc),
play the chorus as often as you please, play that D / Dsus pattern 4 times and end on D.
