Chorus Chords
   D   A   G   D
e|-0---0---3---0--
b|-3---2---3---3--
g|-2---2---0---2--
d|-0---2---0---0--
a|-0---0---5---0--
D|-0-------5---0--

in the chorus, Play each chord at first with a delayed, slow, strong strum then carry on with the rythm...
listen to the acoustic version of the song to get wat i mean.
and if u want u can palm mute the chord a little before u play the delayed strum, if u get wat i mean...
look at the other acoustic version tab for the solo.
have fun
