** Sam Bentley plays little ascending and descending riffs as transitions between chords (normally G to C).
I have denoted these with the asterisks. You can also cut out these riffs (intermittently or all together)
and just pick through the chord descending through the strings (ie: B->G->D).

[BONUS]
In the live version (seen on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8sEK4qlbG4),
Sam Bentley plays the guitar only throughout the song. The guitar is tuned down a half step on each string
with a capo on the 5th fret. You can create the same sound in standard tuning with the capo on the 4th fret.
The song is played the exact same way except for the solo, which is added below:
