OK, I got this the usual way, by listening to the CD over and over and over again... So, obviously, this is not perfect.
Generally,
Intro: hammers
[Hi E--6--7--6--4--6--7--6--4--
--------------------------]
or
[Hi E--5--6--5--3--5--6--5--3--
--------------------------]
I'm not sure. Repeat as required. Slide into rhythm (bottom string or two,
slower on one guitar than the other)
Rhythm chords:
[Hi E--4--- --6--- --4---
--6--- --8--- --4---
--6--- --8--- ------
------ ------ ------
------ ------ ------
Lo E------ ------ ------]
Stuff in there

I'm also not sure what's going on at the end.
Here are the words (you got 'em if you got the CD):
Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer, he's a demon on wheels
He's a demon and he's gonna be chasin' after someone
He's gainin' on you so you better look alive
He's busy revin' up a powerful Mach 5
And when the odds are against him and there's dangerous work (to do)
You bet your life Speed Racer will see it through
Chorus: Go Speed Racer, go Speed Racer, go Speed Racer, go.
He's off and flyin' as he guns the car around the track
He's jammin' down the pedal like he's never comin' back
Adventure's waitin' just ahead
Chorus
