Boyd's intro/fill:

This is played throughout the song except from during the brigde (I, I hold on)

Intro/Verse: 
The guitar comes in on "15-14" (I've marked it off with a ?)
after Boyd has played the riff once.

Chorus:
The Chorus is basicly the same as the verse only with full downstrokes.  
Just count the first chord twice and the last once.
