The song goes like this

Chorus=riff D and riff E
Play intro riff and riff F
Verse 2=riff A and also riffs G and H
Pre chorus 2=riff C
Chorus twice=riff D
Solo=riff I (both guitars)
(In live versions, there is a long gap after this and then suddenly it starts)
Play riff D twice
And back to chorus till it fades away………..play riff D and E throughout and keep
on the D chord at some points (listen to song)
