OK guys this is my version of how i think John plays it.
I think its pretty close, if anyone has any suggestions, please leave a comment.
Im not entirely sure about the very last part of the Intro/Verse, but i think its virtually there.
This is an amazing song,listen the song to get the timing of the picking right,
its pretty straight forward! Good Luck!

Chrous

There is a picking pattern in the Chorus but i havnt figured it out yet,
it's a bit hard to hear, its just these chords played interchangeably.
I just strum them, sounds ok to me:

"Dont say a word.." "..with me"
Dmaj7 then A/Asus

0r and
e |------0----2---------0-----0-----|
B |------2----2---------2-----3-----|
G |------2----2---------2-----2-----|
D |------0----0---------2-----2-----|
A |---------------------0-----0-----|
E |---------------------------------|

Bridge thing after Second Chorus:

A F#m D A
A F#m D E
F#m D A A

This Riff is played throughout:

Riff 1

e |------------------------|
B |2-3-5-3-2---2-3-5-3-2---|
G |----------2-----------2-|
D |------------------------|
A |------------------------|
E |------------------------|

Back to Chorus:

Dmaj7 then A/Asus

0r 0r
e |------2----0---------0----0-----|
B |------2----2---------2----3-----|
G |------2----2---------2----2-----|
D |------0----0---------2----2-----|
A |---------------------0----0-----|
E |--------------------------------|

Riff 1 is played throughout this last chorus and through to the end of the song
along with this Riff also:

Riff 2

e |4-5-4-0---0-4-5-4-0---0-|
B |--------0-----------0---|
G |------------------------|
D |------------------------|
A |------------------------|
E |------------------------|
