Chorus
This is more of the rythm part, not the lead.  The lead is built of the intro. Play this 
few times and listen for it, you'll hear it in the song.

e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-9-9---7-7-------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-9-9---7-7---5-5---7-7---9-9---7---5---9-9-9-9-------------------------------|  2 times
A|-7-7---5-5---5-5---7-7---9-9---7---5---9-9-9-9-------------------------------|
E|----------------3-3---5-5---7-7---5---3---7-7-7-7----------------------------|

Toward the end they start humming, the repetive chord being played is the same chord 
is played after the drum part at the begining. The lead guitar plays something like this, 
to is built of the intro, if you wanna do your own thing.

e|-----------------------------------------------|
