A fun and easy song to play. Please

This is how the intro goes.
The bass doesn't enter right away.

A|---|------------------|-------------------|---------------------------|-
E|---|-4/-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5--4/-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5--4/-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-

A|-----------------|--0-3----0----0-3\--1-|-0-x-0-3-x-3-x-5-5-5-|
E|-4/-5--4/-5--4---|----------------------|---------------------|
This is the 1st verse, you'll
be playing this for a few times.
G|----------------------|----------------------|-------|
D|*---------------------|---------------------*|-------|
A|*-0-x-0-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-0-x-0-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-*|-0-0-0-|

There is a small pause between the verse and the chorus.
This part is the chorus.
G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|
A|-5-5-5-5-0-0-0-0-3-3-3-3-|-5-5-5-5-0-0-0-0-3-3-3-3-|
E|-------------------------|-------------------------|
G|-------------------------|---------|
D|-------------------------|---------|
A|-5-5-5-5-0-0-0-0-3-3-3-3-|-5-5-5-5-|
E|-------------------------|---------|
After that, move on to the 2nd & 3rd verse, which
is played slightly different than the 1st verse.
Like so:

A|-0-0-x-0-3-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-0-0-x-0-3-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-

G|-------------------------|------|
D|-------------------------|------|
A|-0-0-x-0-3-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-0-0--|

Now play the chorus.
After the chorus is played, comes the bridge.
G|-----------------|-----------------|-------------|---------------|-
D|-----------------|-----------------|-------------|---------------|-
A|-----------------|-8-8-8-----------|-------------|-8-8-8---------|-
E|-h6--6-6-8---8-8-|-------6--6-6-h6-|--6-6-8--8-8-|-------6-6-6-6-|-
G|-----------------|----------------|-----------------|---------------------|
D|-----------------|----------------|-----------------|---------3---5---5---|

E|-h6--6-6-8---8-8-|---------6--(6)-|-h5--5-3--3-2--2-|---------------------|
So after the bridge, you play the 3rd verse, which
is played just like the 2nd verse. Then move on to
the chorus.
And then, the outro is played.
