This is a big oversimplification mostly because this is a bass-heavy song.
D7sus/E = 0-x-0-2-1-3 Em7 = 0-x-9-9-8-10, which is mostly a "slide up" of the D7sus Bsus2 = x-2-4-4-2-2

F#m G Come with me my little innocents, there's a game that we can play G F#m A G See how much we can change your world while you look the other way F#m G Turn around as if to see if you can catch us cheat G F#m A G And all you'll find are shining presents laid down at your feet A G Bsus2 Take the bait, take the bait, take the bait

F#m G Television is flash and Coke is nice and you can have the rest G F#m A G Dream those dreams you've always had of wealth and power and sex F#m G We'll run your mines, your factories and we'll take our little toll G F#m A G And you can have these missiles too while we maintain control

[Verse 3]
F#m G Like lambs go to the slaughterhouse, we know our rights from wrongs G F#m A G But we go down to the shopping mall with 30 silver coins F#m G And somewhere out in South America, where the forests lie in ruin, they shout: G F#m A G "We'd better get these natives some clothes!" because their videos are coming in soon
