one guitar is BASICLY (it might switch around a little)
E-Bm7-A then repeat, this is for the verse and chorus

guitar number two is alittle harder to explain so I'll diagram
E---0---            ---0---       ---0---|
B---0---            ---0---       ---0---|
G---13--            ---7---       ---6---|    Then the normal E
D---14--            ---8---       ---7---|
A---14--            ---8---       ---7---|
E---0---            ---0---       ---0---|
   E chord           Bm7             A
 (with octave sound)

this should sound right but I'm writting from a school lab
from memory with out my guitar so ask questions if it sounds wrong

the intro has a few differences
E for twice as long then Bm7 for twice as long
do that twice then it goes into the standard pattern that I've
written above. EXCEPT: Listen for the harmonics section I think it is just a
12th fret - 7th fret - 5th fret harmonic progression(in concert they play the
harmonics a little different)

Thats it except don't be fooled by the strumming pattern
during the third verse("she walks into....")same chords as before

I forgot to mention that in the intro. there is a moving D chord
---slide it from D position to E{up 2 frets}while the other guitar is doing
that strange decending pattern.
