For this song the best bet is probably to play the power chords for
the versus because they're palm muted and play the normal chords for
the chorus
This is the palm muted part that Jarrett plays

You can play the above intro using the real chords, I just find it
sounds better with the heavier sound, which is how they play it live
Matt's Riff

Jarrett plays the palm muted part through this riff, but plays the
last F and C in the normal chord position and lets them ring. When
Matt hits that C at the end of the Riff thats when Jarrett is hiting it
you'll notice other parts of the song where this occurs so listen for
them.
Goodbye girl, gone to see the world. Out to see everything but me
