INTRO
It's basically just the 7th position open E followed by 4th and 6th position versions of
the standard E chord shape. The cool part is just based off of an arpeggiated open C
with a couple little twists thrown in. Very simple, very cool sounding.

a--7----5--7----7--5--7----7--5--7\-------------0-3-------------------------

That is the main base riff of the whole song.

Now this is what I hear behind the chorus..

Next is the solo, which I doubt I'm going to figure out here on my acoustic guitar...
at least until I figure out how to mount that tremolo bar ;)
