Check these out brother, The bass line and chords for the chorus is:

Bass Line:
B, Bb, Ab, Gb, Eb, Ab(or Gb), Bb, Ab and they also substitute that first Bb for an Eb too.

Chords for this section are: (piano or organ...I pretty much do it the same)

F#-Bb-Eb
F-Ab-C# (2x's)
Eb-F#-Bb (2x's)
C#-F-Ab
Bb-C#-Eb-F#
C#-Eb-F-Ab
C#-Eb-F#-Bb
Bb-B-C#-Eb-F#

those are the chords for the chorus.  Listen to the song and you'll get the rhythm (it's easy)

The 2nd time that you go into the verse section (that I posted earlier) you start it off the same, but then it starts to change.  This is how I hear it...(you can leave the second bass note (for each chord) out until you are used to the single note (so just play the first note listed for bass until you are comfortable)

D-Ab/C-E-Ab-C
C#-F#-Bb/B-Eb-F#-Bb
F#-C#/Bb-Eb-E-Ab
B-F#/Bb-C#-Eb-F#
F/F#-C-F

Then when they get to the VAMP...."not about us...not about us, not about us...not about us, but it's about Jesus...but it's about Jesus

You just play Eb octaves (with a Bb in the middle, if you want) and they throw that little lick in there (F, F#, Bb)

When you end a phrase you end on this chord
