Chords used:
 
I can't give exact chords for the song since these ones are built around the bassline.
There's a lot of ways
you can play the chords here to get the sound you want, but I'd recommend using power
chords (for the
pattern, pick the bass note, then strum the whole chord three or four times).
 
If you use triads, barre chords or something similar instead, try messing around with
minor chords. In the key
of C#, I believe D, D#, E, and A# are minor by default.
