As far as I'm aware it's a simple chord sequence of B > G#m > E > F 
With B over the talking
Because a Bguy I used to know
Is reG#mturning now to show
That the wErong way to be
Is rF#ubbing off on me 
BI guess we were never going to be friends 
I've never really liked people that are too right on 
Mind you, I'd love to turn my back on everything I've preached for years 
I bet that's a right laugh 
Because a Bguy I used to know 
Is reG#mturning now to show 
That the wErong way to be 
Is rF#ubbing off on me 
And no you cBan't come back to mine 
Because I kG#mnow that you will find 
That the wErong way to be 
Is rF#ubbing off on me 
BYou were funny the other night 
You were just name dropping 
Talking about scene hopping 
Dreaming of chart topping 
I remember, just before I walked away 
Wondering to myself 
How someone that lives so much of their lives through other people 
Could possibley have so much to say 
Because a gBuy I used to know 
Is retG#murning now to show 
That the wErong way to be 
Is rF#ubbing off on me 
And no you cBan't come back to mine 
Because I kG#mnow that you will find 
That the wErong way to be 
Is rF#ubbing off on me 
BYou know, your scene has got a lot to answer for 
Like all these clued up arseholes 
Trying to set us and Wakefield at war 
(Nothing here maybe some occasional improvised B strumming)
You know it's not right but it's something you like 
Because a gBuy I used to know 
Is reG#mturning now to show 
That the wErong way to be 
Is rF#ubbing off on me 
And no you cBan't come back to mine 
But you will aG#mlways blow my mind 
Yeah the Ewrong way to be 
Is rBubbing off on me
