Verse- The verse is very simple- four palm muted power chords with base note on fifth string.

Pre-chorus starts with “I think its getting better for the two of us.”
A5- 6th string, 5th fret Those are all palm muted with the figure
Bb5- 6th string, 6th fret below. It doesn’t really matter what string
