To finish off Act II here is "Brand New Day" from Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. Not the best I've done in the series, would probably sound better if I played guitar. Everything is mostly in fifths and not full chords I don't know if that equates to power chords or not. The slow section talking about Penny needs some more attention as well.

Awesome job, thank you for doing this!
All the crimes, the complete
All the crimes, the complete list, and honestly, I'll live.
I think that line goes like this:
All the crimes incomplete, listen, honestly, I'll live
I like that
I'll make the change accordingly
listen honestly I'll live
just one word too many still...
I'm rather sure that it's "listen, honestly, I'll live.
Brilliant job! This is such a nice source to have!
Last Chorus
Lovely work here, you have made my night! In playing with this one, I found some different chords that I liked better for the final chorus, definitely ends on Db (or more commonly called C#)

You might also want to try
You might also want to try replacing Fm/E with C/E. It makes a much richer sound, especially if your a solo accompanist.
Correction?
I've played it on the guitar a few times now. I think the last line of the bridge is a Bbm where you've got it an F. ("when I hand her the keys...")
Probably just a typo, though I could be, and often am, wrong. Thanks for taking the time to tab this out.
