How do I stop Chrome from pre-populating input boxes?

Is there some way I can stop Chrome from auto populating input boxes? I have a page with a Sign Up form and a Log In form. In Chrome, if a user has already signed up and they've come to this page to log in, the password input box on the sign up form is populated with their password. I would really like to force the sign up fields to never auto complete.

I've tried setting autocomplete="false" but this makes no difference.

How does autofill work in Chrome?

After you interact with the first field in the address form, the browser shows you a list of saved addresses. You can choose one, and the browser fills in all fields related to the address. Autofill makes filling out forms fast and easy. Not every address form has the same fields, and the order of fields also varies.
