Bass comes in at 0:49
G|--------------------10p9----------------------------------------| D|----------------10--------10------------------------------------| A|---------10h12----------------10--10--10--8h10h12p10p8----------| E|-10--10---------------------------------------------------------|
This is the basic riff that repeats through the song but depending on how much
you like to slide could also be played like this:
G|----------------------------------------------------------------| D|----------------10/15\14\10-------------------------------------| A|---------10h12---------------10--10--10--8h10h12p10p8-----------| E|-10--10---------------------------------------------------------|
[Post-Chorus]
This happens 1x at 2:32 and 3:37 and 2x in a row at 4:35. Rhythm is relatively
obvious.
G|-----------------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------1--1--1--1-----------------------| A|--1--1--1--1--3--3--3--3--------------------3--3-----------| E|--------------------------------------3--3-----------------|
[Outro]
Bit trickier to tell but seems like he's gradually sticking more to the lower notes
and using fewer of them, variations on the original theme, make up what you like:
G|----------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------10-10--------------------------------------| A|-----------10----------10--10--10--8h10-10p8--------------| E|-10--10---------------------------------------------------| G|-----------------10-10------------------------------------| D|---------------------------10-----------------------------| A|-------------10----------------10--10--10-----------------| E|-10--10--10-----------------------------------------------|
