The song is made up of nice simple riffs
I've written riffs in bars because timing is important and i've written the beats
at the top of the bars.
Keep playing the chord and count out the beats until it changes
Tuning: Standard EADGBe
The song is actually played in F major (capo 5) but it sounds fine without a capo
Chords:
C : x32010
Bm7 : x20202
E7 : 020130
Am : x02210
G : 320033
F : 133211
D7 : xx0212
E : 022100
D6m : xx0201
G7 : 320001
Riff 1:
Played in the verses
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
| C | Bm7 E7 |
| Am G | F G* | *See below

Riff 2:
Played in the chorus
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
| E E7 | Am G F Am|
| D6m G7 | C |
*You may find the G chord after the F chord in the 4th measure in Riff 1 easier as
a barre chord (355433)
as it only requires you to slide up 2 frets from the F barre chord
Here shows how the riffs fit in with the words:
