This may or may not be 100% accurate but sounds pretty close and should
impress your all indie-rock friends. The way I play it is in standard
tuning: E A D G B E

Of course \ is slide down / is slide up.

Main Part:

----------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------|
--------11*-----11----------6-------4---------|
------0-------0----0--------------0-----------|
----0---------------------0-------------------|
-10-------10----------\-5-----\-3------3-/----| (slide back up repeat)

* - on a few of the runs through this line this note is bent up
one step.

Lyrics:
Rental sting the customer is king
Waste your life waste your life
Little things can cost you everything
Save your life save your life

Bridge:

-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-2-2-2--22--10-12-10-10-\-5-5-5--55-/-12-14-12-12-\----|
-0-0-0--00--8--8--8--8--\-3-3-3--33-/-10-10-10-10-\----| (again slide down
& repeat)

[whistling overtop no vocals]

Repeat Main Part with new lyrics:

Dead and white our distance is disguised
Mad and sad when it's my misunderstanding
Rental sting the customer is king
Waste your life waste your life


Closing part:

-------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------|
7-7-8-8-9-9-8------------------------|
5-5-5-5-5-5-5---7--8--9----5--6--7---|
----------------5--5--5----3--3--3---| (repeat to ending)

There's a second guitar picking out some individual higher notes overtop
this pattern but this part sounds sufficient on its own.

As always feel free to correct me or add anything.
