..and repeat..
from some point (1.13 min), something like this is repeatedly played over
the piano chords:

A|-5--|
D|-3--|
over and over.
I haven't been myself of late
I haven't slept for several days
But coming home I feel like I
Designed these buildings I walk by
You know you drive me up the wall
I need to see your face that's all
You little sod, I love your eyes
Be everything to me tonight
Be everything to me tonight
I never know what I want but I know when I'm low that I
I need to be in the town where they know what I'm like and don't mind
(repeat)
The streets are full of Goths and Greeks
I haven't seen my mum for weeks
But coming home I feel like I
Designed these buildings I walk by
You know you drive me up the wall
I need to see your face that's all
You little sod, I love your eyes
Be everything to me tonight
Be everything to me tonight
Be everything to me tonight

version 2
Listen to the song for the timing of the changes from the 2 riffs
also towards the end of the song between the G's & C's you can add the
occasional F to make it sound more like the song (it's actually a piano).
Again listen to the song and you'll know what i mean.
G (355433) or (320003)
C (x35553) or (x32010)
