-So this is fairly incomplete, because I don't have the intro or that sweet riff he plays with the string instruments. Also I'm missing a chord in the second half of the verse. Feel free to edit/improve this as you see fit.

+This is the "thump" pattern for the instrumental parts. I only tabbed it out for G but it's the same pattern for each chord.
+*The x just means mute the strings, but then at the end you can strum the muted strings a couples times. Again, just listen to the song to get the rhythm.
