   Intro (this is the guitar part, I put this in because it makes it more fun to play)
If you want what the bass plays just play the opening 2 notes in each bar and then the last bar.

The order of the song is pretty simple.  You should be able to tell where the intro and verses are being played.  The fill comes after the first chorus and the solo.  For the solo just play the verse, I think that’s what it is.  Other than that it should be ok.
