Intro-Verse-Chorus-Bridge-Verse-Chorus-outro
There’s a bit of a drum intro at the start with the guitar doing an E
power chord which fades in and after 16 bars (I think) it starts up.
Intro

P.M.
Repeat this chord for sixteen bars (palm muted) after 8 bars, guitar 2
comes in with the same thing.
Then it goes:
(Slashes represent strumming pattern)
////|////|////|//// >x2
..Em …C …..G ….D
Verse
The first half of the verse is just the bass playing
———————————
————————-0-0—–

After 6 repeats of that, the guitar comes in the same as before:
////|////|////|////
..Em …C …..G ….D
Except it’s palm muted.
It repeats 4 times
Chorus

Outro
Same as Bridge.
Guitar 2
Intro
Comes in after 8 bars with same chord as guitar 1
Same as guitar one throughout
Verse
Just before the singing starts, the low e string is plucked once,
then, before guitar 1 comes in halfway through the verse, guitar two
plays quarter notes on an open b string about 6 times (it fades in and
out, so I’m unsure of how many repeats it does.
Through the chorus, guitar 2 basically plays the same thing:
E——-
B–3—-
G—–0-
