I found this tab of Czar at a Nevada mirror site and made a few corrections.
These corrections are:
1) Replaced the open E chord at the end of the Verse Riff with a higher bar
chord (the riff definitely rises at the end).
2) Modified the A E F# chord progression that occurs at the end of each verse
"Band . . ." "Thanks . . ." "No . . ." with A G# F# (the progression definitely
descends).
3) Added the florish in the middle of the chorus (at the end of the line
"who has sung his bars") E F F# (I think there's a musical name for this florish
but I can't think of it).
I'd be happy to hear any feedback.

The lyrics are from memory, please correct!
The Chords:
[A] [F#] [G#] [C#m]
The Verse Riff:
[B] [Em] [C#] [E]

You have to listen closely to the recording to hear the
Em/E/Esus thingy he does after the B...
The timing is pretty easy to learn, and I tried to indicate
it as close as I could with the lyrics.
The Song:
(Riff x 2)
(Riff)
Time... If he could travel
(Riff)
Time... He would have been on
(Riff)
Time... Instead of making
(Riff)
Rhyme... He didn't need a
Band[A]...[G#][F#]
N.C. (Riff)
He was a moutain man
(Riff)
Oil... The national
(Riff)
Turmoil.... They hide it in the
(Riff)
Soil... I say no read head
(Riff)
Spoil... Just singing
Thank[A]s...[G#][F#]
N.C. (Riff x 2 w/ only bass strings)
I've got my own gas tanks
Chorus:
[F#] And there's no [G#]time for the ma[C#m]n
Who has [A]sung his b[E]ars[E][F][F#]
[F#]And there's no time
[G#] And there's no [C#m]time for the man [A]called [E]Czar
(Riff)
Blue... Extrodinary
(Riff)
Blue... Ten million port hole
(Riff)
Views... They're saying on the
(Riff)
News... The Russians just say
No.[A]..[G#][F#]
N.C.
You can't go
(Chorus)
