Acoustic Intro Riff:

Just hold a D chord shape and pick the following pattern

e -------------------------------|
b ---------------3---------------|
g --------2----------2-----2-----|
d -----0-----0----------0--------|  x 4
a -------------------------------|
e -------------------------------|

Then The Electric lead Riff comes in (this is just a rough guess at it)
e --------------------------------------|
b ------------10------------------------|
g ----------------9h10p9----------------|
d -----2s12----------------7s12--12-----| x3
a --------------------------------------|
e --------------------------------------|
(The chords under this electric riff are F, G, Dm listen to the song to work out the 
timing of the changes)

The Final Time the riff changes after the 9h10p9 to this:

e -------------------------------------|
b --------10s15v--15s17-17-17-17v-17s0-|
g -------------------------------------|
d -------------------------------------|
a -------------------------------------|
e -------------------------------------|
