interlude
I'm pretty unsure here, it appears to be D|5-777-5-777-5-7-| with something
like A|3-5-5-7 every now and then (listen to the song for rhythm). I think it
varies, but the sound is too noisy for me to figure it out (corrections
welcome).
Play A|3-5-7-3 the last time.

verse
G|----------------| I'm not sure if there's the low A in the song, not that
D|7-----7---7-7-7-| it makes much of a difference. When playing without lead
A|0-----0---0-0-0-| guitar, you can play D|5 on the first beat to keep the
E|----------------| groove going.

prechorus
G|----------------|
D|7-----7---7-7-7-| Like with the verse, you can play D|5 on the first beat.
A|5-----5---5-5-5-| I think the bass actually plays a D5 chord only at the 
E|----------------| beginning of each bar.
