A |2---2---|99999---|7---7---|99999---|
E |0---0---|00000---|0---0---|00000---|
Whereas the chorus rhythm is more like:
e |E0-0-0---|B2-2-2-2-|A0-0-0---|B2-2-2-2-|
B |0-0-0---|4-4-4-4-|2-2-2---|4-4-4-4-|
G |1-1-1---|4-4-4-4-|2-2-2---|4-4-4-4-|

A |2-2-2---|2-2-2-2-|0-0-0---|2-2-2-2-|
E |0-0-0---|x-x-x-x-|x-x-x---|x-x-x-x-|
although that's a simplification!
