Okay, I've seen a lot of versions, and after watching the music video and seeing how he plays it live, here's my interpretation. I think it's the most accurate. Intro/Bridge E----3--1h3-----0-0----0-0-------------------------------- B---3------3----1-1----1-1-------------------------------- G--2-----------2-------0---------------------------------- D-0-----------3-------2----------------------------------- A--------------------3------------------------------------ E--------------------------------------------------------- [Dsus4] [Fmaj7] [C] Verse/Chorus E-1--1-1---0--0-0---0--0-0----1h3p1(0)*-1----------------- B-3--3-3---1--1-1---1--1-1----3---------3----------------- G-2--2-2---2--2-2---0--0-0----2---------2----------------- D----------3--3-3---2--2-2-------------------------------- A-------------------3--3-3-------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------------- [Dm] [Fmaj7] [C] [Dm*] *the star indicates a kinda tricky part to play. I dunno if I tabbed it out right so i'll write it here. hold your fingers like you're playing Dm, quickly strum thru the notes normally, hammer highE 3rd fret with your pinkie, then quickly pulloff your index finger from highE 1st fret to an open highE. Then you put your index finger hard on where it just was and strum Dm once again. The last strum is actually the beginning of the next series.
