Squire tends to throw in lots of variations and ad-libs, so this isn't a perfect tab, but it's accurate
and has all the parts and the solo.

Second verse and chorus are the same as the first, except you don't play the palm muted bits and just strum
D and G at the start of their bars in the verse, and don't play the very last bit with "And I love you true"
as you go into the solo.
End of second verse (going into second chorus)

[Solo]
There's another guitar that does some bends and ad-libs (most audible at the start of the solo), but this is
the main line.

Then repeat the chorus, with the "And I love you true" bit on its own to end the song and lead into the outro.
