Chorus
So,  D# hang on to your  F ego. D#
hang on, but I  F know that your gonna  A# lose the fight D#

Chords before and during solo:
G#    C#    C     B    A#
G#    D#    G#    G#
F#    C#    F#    F#
Then repeat verse 2 and chorus
Note: I imagine that frank black plays this song with his guitar tuned
down 1/2 step, but I hate re-tuning my guitar, so these chords
are in standard tuning. I play all the chords sorta like barre
chords.
