Verse:

the chords in the verse are just C - G - A - D played twice. The D is
played normal then the little fill of D-Dsus2-D-Dsus4-D-Dsus2-D is
played, which is just:

e|--2--0--2--3--2--0--2
B|--3--3--3--3--3--3--3
G|--2--2--2--2--2--2--2
D|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0

Chorus:
The chorus is just C - G - A - D
                   C - G - D (followed by the same fill as in the verses)

The second time you play this in the chorus you play the little D fill
twice and if memory serves me correctly you play the following lead
fill aswell.

Outro:

The outro is just D - G played over and over with the singing, there's
and outro solo too I
think, but I never bothered figuring it out, you can just improvise with
the G major scale. Updated 1-3-02 jedi77!
