Riff 2:
To me, it sounds like riff 2 is part of the bass line, but for playing solo acoustic, it 
pretty good to add it in.

(Riff 1) x2

CHORUS
(with acoustic and doubling electric guitars)

Play:
(Riff 1 and Solo) x4
over the verse chords of Am, G, D/F#
[Since I'm not one for doing exactly the same solo, I'd just pull out a slide and go 
in A Blues or something.  Whatever floats your boat.  He does use a slide though, for just 
every solo/interlude in the song.]

Bridge:
The chords here are strummed once, and where the chord is in parenthesis, it is implied, 
it's not actually played, but it's tonality is there.

Am                 D/F#
   Don't go to the other side

Am                       (D/F#)
   Just get down on your knees

(Am)                       (D/F#)
   And show me what you are made of

(Am)               (D/F#)
   I'm begging you please

F
   Just please go away


CHORUS x2 (second time to end with some solo guitar work in A)


C        C/B       Am         G
   Don't go to the other side

(G)       D/F#

Once in a while

Once in a while
