[Verse]
(Bm)
Well, I've got a fever, a non-believer. I'm in a state of grace
                                         F#m
For I am the Caesar, I'm gonna seize the day
Well, call of the banshee hey hey. Hey hey hey hey hey
                                            Bm
As God as my witness the infidels are gonna pay
Well, call the assassin. The orgasm. A spasm of love and hate
                                               F#m
For what will divide us? The righteous and the meek
Well, call of the wild hey hey. Hey hey hey hey hey
                                    Bm
Death to the girl at the end of the serenade
 
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
I am a killjoy from Detroit. I drink from a well of rage
                                    F#m
I feed off the weakness with all my love
Call up the captain hey hey. Hey hey hey hey hey
                                          Bm
Death to the lover that you were dreaming of
This is a stand off, a Molotov cocktail On the house
                                                F#m
You thought I was a write off. You better think again
Call the peacemaker hey hey. Hey hey hey hey hey
                                                  Bm
I'm gonna send you back to the place where it all began

I think it should be F# instead of F#m and the last note of the solo is on the 12th not the 11th fret. But otherwise perfect.

The chord change at "meek" in the first verse should be to F#m (typo).
