Tuning:Standard EADGBE
The main riff is really simple and repeats itself in the verses:
VERSES

D|-------------------------------------------| X2
A|----9--9--9----11--11--11--11--------------|
E|----0--0--0-----0---0---0---0--------------|

G|-------------------------------------------| X2
D|----9--9--9----11--11--11--11--------------|
A|----0--0--0-----0---0---0---0--------------|
E|-------------------------------------------|
Repeat the above as many times as necassary:
CHORUS: Listen to the song to get the rhythm, but
generally each chord is strumed 4 times, then E
is strummed more.

In the verses after the chorus, John uses a little distortion but the notes are the same:
