This is how the intro goes. 
The bass doesn't enter right away.

G|---|------------------|-------------------|---------------------------|-
D|---|------------------|-------------------|---------------------------|-
A|---|------------------|-------------------|---------------------------|-
E|---|-4/-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5--4/-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5--4/-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-

G|-----------------|----------------------|---------------------|
D|-----------------|----------------------|---------------------|
A|-----------------|--0-3----0----0-3\--1-|-0-x-0-3-x-3-x-5-5-5-|
E|-4/-5--4/-5--4---|----------------------|---------------------|

This is the 1st verse, you'll
be playing this for a few times.

G|----------------------|----------------------|-------|
D|*---------------------|---------------------*|-------|
A|*-0-x-0-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-0-x-0-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-*|-0-0-0-|
E|----------------------|----------------------|-------|

There is a small pause between the verse and the chorus.

This part is the chorus.

G|-------------------------|-------------------------|
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|
A|-5-5-5-5-0-0-0-0-3-3-3-3-|-5-5-5-5-0-0-0-0-3-3-3-3-|
E|-------------------------|-------------------------|

G|-------------------------|---------|
D|-------------------------|---------|
A|-5-5-5-5-0-0-0-0-3-3-3-3-|-5-5-5-5-|
E|-------------------------|---------|

After that, move on to the 2nd & 3rd verse, which
is played slightly different than the 1st verse.

Like so:

G|-------------------------|-------------------------|-
D|-------------------------|-------------------------|-
A|-0-0-x-0-3-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-0-0-x-0-3-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-
E|-------------------------|-------------------------|-

G|-------------------------|------|
D|-------------------------|------|
A|-0-0-x-0-3-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-|-0-0--|
E|-------------------------|------|

Now play the chorus.

After the chorus is played, comes the bridge.
 
G|-----------------|-----------------|-------------|---------------|-
D|-----------------|-----------------|-------------|---------------|-
A|-----------------|-8-8-8-----------|-------------|-8-8-8---------|-
E|-h6--6-6-8---8-8-|-------6--6-6-h6-|--6-6-8--8-8-|-------6-6-6-6-|-

G|-----------------|----------------|-----------------|---------------------|
D|-----------------|----------------|-----------------|---------3---5---5---|
A|-----------------|-8/-10-8--------|-----------------|-0-0-5-----3---5---5-|
E|-h6--6-6-8---8-8-|---------6--(6)-|-h5--5-3--3-2--2-|---------------------|

So after the bridge, you play the 3rd verse, which 
is played just like the 2nd verse. Then move on to
the chorus. 

And then, the outro is played.

G|---------------------------|-----------------|-----------------|-
D|*-------------------------*|-----------------|-----------------|-
A|*-0-0-x-0-3-3-x-3-5-5-5-5-*|-----------------|-8-8-8-----------|-
E|---------------------------|-h6--6-6-8---8-8-|-------6--6-6-h6-|-

G|-------------|---------------|-----------------|--------------|
D|-------------|---------------|-----------------|--------------|
A|-------------|-8-8-8---------|-----------------|-8-8-8--------|
E|--6-6-8--8-8-|-------6-6-6-6-|-h6--6-6-8---8-8-|-------6---h6-|

And that's it!
