Hey, this isn't perfect, but it sounds pretty good.

Intro:

D chord

(hit the open D occasionally)

-2---
-3---
-2---                             followed by:   ----------|
(0)--                                            -----3-0--|
-----                                            -2-4------|
-----                                            ----------|
                                                 ----------|
                                                 ----------|

Keep playing that with everything muted except for last note throughout the verses. Then repeat.




Chorus:

Play the D power chord quietly
---
---
-7-                                 followed by: --5------3----|
-7-                                              --5------3----|
-5-                                              --6------4----|
---                                              --7------5----|
                                                 --7------5----|
                                                 --5------3----|
                                                   A      G

(Optional chorus if you have a second guitarist)
I'd use this part as a bass riff, but if you want to play it on guitar, play this.

----------------------------|
----------------------------|
----------------------------|
----------------------------|
------5-5~----------5-------|
-5--7------7~-5-5-7--7--5-3-|



Bridge:
--------|
-----3--|
-2-4----|
--------|
--------|
--------|



Now repeat intro and then mute the intro the same way for the verses.

For the next chorus, instead of playing the D power chord you are gonna pluck it like this:


---------------|
---------------|
-----7-------7-|
---7-------7---|                 repeat several times until the end.
-5-----5-5-----|
---------------|


I like to play this with a Chorus and Overdrive pedal.
Enjoy!
