Want You Gone/Tabs
Here are the base chords underlying that chorus riff: F#-G#m-A#m-B x3 - D-E to end the chorus on the "Now I only want you..." part.
Also, after the main riff that chord leading into the chorus is a C#7.
Joco plays this live in a different key (G) than on the record. On the record I think he's playing it in A.

Here are a set of chords for those who'd like to strum along instead:
A F#m Well here we are again D E It's always such a pleasure A F#m Remember when you tried D E to kill me twice? A F#m Oh how we laughed and laughed D E Except I wasn't laughing A F#m Under the circumstances D C# F# I've been shockingly nice F# Abm Bbm B You want your freedom? Take it F# Abm B C# That's what I'm counting on F# Abm Bbm B I used to want you dead but Bm E A Now I only want you gone A F#m She was a lot like you D E (Maybe not quite as heavy) A F#m D E Now little Caroline is in here too A F#m One day they woke me up D E So I could live forever A F#m It's such a shame the same D C# F# will never happen to you F# Abm Bbm B You've got your short sad life left F# Abm B C# That's what I'm counting on F# Abm Bbm B I'll let you get right to it Bm E A Now I only want you gone A F#m Goodbye my only friend D E Oh, did you think I meant you? A F#m That would be funny D E if it weren't so sad A F#m Well you have been replaced D E I don't need anyone now A F#m When I delete you maybe D C# F# I'll stop feeling so bad F# Abm Bbm B Go make some new disaster F# Abm B C# That's what I'm counting on F# Abm Bbm B You're someone else's problem Bm E A Now I only want you gone Bm E A Now I only want you gone D E Now I only want you A gone
Here's a basic interpretation for the guitar that kind of imitates the electronic original:

Final Chorus F#, Absus4, Bbm, B F#, Absus4, Bbm, B F#, Absus4, Bbm, B Bm, E, A, F#m Bm, E, A, F#m Bm, E, A Optionally, if you're in a generous mood you can throw in Asus2/G# between the A and F#m here. If you prefer strumming to picking, the chords to the verse are the same as those in "I'm Your Moon" (sort of), although you can leave the A string bass in there if you want. Asus2, Asus2/D#, Asus2/D, Asus2/F Asus2, Asus2/D#, Asus2/D, E Asus2, Asus2/D#, Asus2/D, Asus2/F Asus2, Asus2/D#, Asus2/D, C# Or, you know, you can make it a plain A with that same walkdown. Play with it and do whatever feels right. Although I would mute the high E in any case.

The chords in the verse are mostly variations of G between diminished, suspended, and augmented. Interpret them how you'd like. In the chorus he's letting the E ring out and not strumming it as heavily as the rest of the chorus, make sure you're not strumming it too hard otherwise it could sound a little muddy.
