 Okay, guitar time. First off, I’ll just suggest chords to play. What
I mean is,
 I’m not entirely sure where on the neck those above chords are being
played
 in each case. The rhythm guitar part is somewhere buried in the mix,
so it’s not
 the clearest thing to hear. But I want to at least give some sorts
of chords.
 Then, I’ll try to tab out bits and pieces of Todd’s lead guitar.

^Those are the arpegios Todd plays in the intro, and also at other
points
 in the verse.

A----------------------------------------------------------------
much too much.."

 "Too soooon"

 Listen to the recording to get an idea for the timing on those,
because I’m not good at
 accurately tabbing that sort of stuff.
 Bridge:

E---11s12-12-12---11s12-12-12-12---------------------------------
B---11s12-12-12---11s12-12-12-12---------------------------------
G---11s13-13-13---11s13-13-13-13---------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------
   ^Those are played fast, so again, listen to the record
   to get an idea of the timing. I’m just trying to get the
   actual notes down.

 Todd’s solo-ish thingies:
 During the bridge, there’s a part where Todd mimics Daryl’s vocal
melody
 with a fast little guitar riff. I’ll try to tab out some of that
here.
 I’ll quote the corresponding vocal underneath each tab.

E-------------14--pb16r14--12h14p12----------------------------
B--14-14--17----------------------------------------------------
G----------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------
  "Dont get too heavy babe" (pb = prebend)

  "You’ve only known me for a week"

B---14-14--17---------------------------------------------------
G----------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------
  "Gotta keep it steady babe"

E--16-16-14-12-(x4)-------21v-----------------------------------
B----------------------------------------------------------------
G----------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------
  "Gotta keep it real"

 There’s some more to that solo, just a few more things..but I’m too
lazy.

 The next guitar part I’ll tab are his little arpegios in the "I love
you, but I don’t love you" part.

 Kinda hard to hear this closely, so it’s an approximation:

E------9--------9-----------9--11--9-------------------------
B--------11--------11-----------------11---11----------------
G--11--------11--------11----------------9-------------------
D------------------------------------------------------------
A------------------------------------------------------------
E------------------------------------------------------------
  F#6F#6

E------11--------11--------11----13--11--------------------------
B---------13--------13------------------13------13---------------
G--13--------13--------13------------------11--------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------
 G#6G#6
 And then it goes back to the main verse again.
