After hitting the open G chord, Rich plays a fill.  These fills differ with every verse,
to save space in this tab I'm going to write each one out individually instead of
out the entire verse line again.  Here they are in order, with the preceding line 
above (except for the first two, which are played before the verses):

The final two choruses use the same chords as above, but instead of picking the
notes, strum them as chords.

After the first chorus, play the following fill:

G--/4-4--4\2p0---------------0--|
D--------------2p0-2p0----------|
G----------------------2/4\2p0--|

The second chorus leads into Luther's guitar solo.  Rich's solo rhythm is as follows:
