The verses are essentially the same as the intro, alternating between the two shapes
with percussive slaps on the 2nd and 4th beat and raked arpeggiations:
[Verse]
Badd11 Badd9add11
D|------------|----------|
A|------------|6---------|
G|8-----------|6---------|
D|9-----------|9---------|
A|7-----------|7---------|
D|9-----------|9---------|
Similarly:
[Chorus]
C#m7 Badd11 F#m7 G#m7 F#m7 G#m7 F#m7 G#m7 F#m7
D|----------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------|
G|9--------8--------2-----4-----2-----4-----2-----4-----2---|
D|9--------9--------2-----4-----2-----4-----2-----4-----2---|
A|---------7------------------------------------------------|
D|11-------9--------4-----6-----4-----6-----4-----6-----4---|
This is the same throughout the entire song, except the very end which skips the first
two chords in the chorus
