Listen to the record for the strumming pattern of the intro & chorus (they are the same).  
I added some information at the bottom to give you more insight into how 
this tab came about.  The Movement from G to Em7 to Cadd9 is relatively quick, while 
the D and G that come after this movement has a few strums to them.  
This movement is steady and should dictate the speed and rhythm that the
 vocals in the chorus are delivered.

Special Chords:

Em7: 	 022033
Cadd9:   023033

This chord/tab is based on an e-mail I received from the band back in 2000, 
with instructions on how they performed their acoustic version on the air 
via Portland?s WCYY radio station (could have been WMGX, I don?t really
 remember).  I believe lead vocalist and guitarist Bob Whalen sent it, but 
I don?t have the print out anymore so I?m not positive.
  
I haven?t played guitar in five years, so it took me some time to figure 
this out again. I even resorted to e-mailing the members of the band again
 but got no replies (no surprise, they?re no longer together).  So if you
 guys have any ideas, I can always integrate any corrections later.  
Also, I don?t have the tab for the lead lick, so anyone out there wants 
to give it a shot, by all means!
