I find the pattern I have in the Pre-chorus works best for most of the song but take your pick.

If you want I tried transcribing both guitars into one part for the intro and outro hooks. It's not perfect
and it's somewhat difficult to play timing- and fretting-wise but if you want to play it, here's what I got.
