There's two guitars on this one, if you want it to sound exactly like the
record one should be an ES 135 and one should be a Les Paul, both with just
a touch of distortion.
The ES 135 (Cody plays this part on the record as well as singing the
pre-chorus and chorus) should play open chords thusly:
Am Dm F D7 G E7
I---0---1---1---2---3---0---I
I---1---3---1---1---3---3---I
I---2---2---2---2---0---1---I
I---2---0---3---0---0---2---I
I---0---0---3---3---2---2---I
I---0---1---1---2---3---0---I
In this progression:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/r/roots/the_seed_crd.html ]
Am Dm
F D7
Am Dm
Am G F
D7 E7
The Les Paul (second guitar, whatever kind it is) should play barre chords
and fills with two variations of F and D7 like so:
Am Dm F#1 or F#2 D7#1 or D7#2 G E7
I---5---5---8-------1---5--------2-----3---0---I
I---5---6---10------1---7--------1-----3---3---I
I---5---7---10------2---5--------2-----4---1---I
I---7---7---10------3---7--------0-----5---2---I
I---7---5---8-------3---5--------3-----5---2---I
I---5---5---8-------1---5--------2-----3---0---I
In this progression:
Am Dm
F#1 D7#1
Am Dm
Am G F#2
D7#2 E7
