verse is A, E, F#m (bar each), G, A (half bar each), E - you'll work out the timing!
bridge/chorus (i think....) is C#m, E, C#m, E, A, E, A, E etc

What a great song!
I've been playing along to this after hearing it on the Bavarian Bayern2 radio lounge concert and Karl I think you are missing a D chord in the bridge/chorus:
C#m - D - E {learn to dance...}
C#m - E - A - E, {most of all you said...}
A - E {that's when it starts...}
I also think RF plays an A or E(SUS4) after the first E at the end of the verses so E-E-E-E-E-A, just E all the way the second time.
On the radio version on the A-E {that's when it starts...} it sounds like he is taking his finger off the B sting so that it is open - to alternate between A and A5.
Very intriguing lyrics. I can’t see much background on it apart from RF stating that he wanted to write a song with vampyre in the title after reading Anne Rice. St James' Park perhaps he was a Newcastle United fan!
