Chords:
Em D A G
-7---x--------- I like to play the rhythm parts
-8---7---5---3- using barchords,
-9---7---6---4- but open chords sound fine too.

Chorus:

It's that simple, here's all the lead tab:
----------------
INTRO and VERSE
----------------
* The Rhythm Part is just as important as the lead to give the song that swing feel.
* The rhythm parts are played clean, but a tiny amount of overdrive might sound good.
* For the lead parts, I use a very light distortion.
* No riff plays over the "A" Chord, the lead is silent here. But there is an A Octave
in later verses that you can add.

For that lead fill on the second G, I just play these few notes:

B----3-----3-----3-- but it sounds good.

Then play a normal chorus
