        D:--5                        
        A:--3         

Then for the Solo play the G notes from the post chorus with slides then a little chromatic trill around the 12-15 frets (Alternatively just improvise around the 12-15 frets using the chromatic scale)

End with Intro riff then D5 G:---7-7-7
                            D:---7-7-7
                            A:---5-5-5

That’s pretty much it just listen to the song to get the timings etc
