The following is the riff played (twice at the start as an intro, and then
throughout the verse) by two semi-clean electric guitars
 +   +   +   +	  +   +   +   +

The bridge ("Can you teach me about tomorrow..") goes along these lines
 +  +  +  +	  +  +  +  +
|-----------------|-----3---3-----3-|
|---------0-----0-|---3-------3-----|
|-----2-----2-----|-------0-----0---|

Then the main riff again, followed by
 +  +  +  +	  +  +  +  +
|---------3-------|-----------------|
|-------3---3-----|-3-----2---------|
|-----0-------0---|---2-------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses
("Time is wasting..") and solo. The second electric plays the occasional
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo:
 +  +  +  +	  +    +  +  +   +  +  +  +

|-------------------------------|---------------------------------|-----

At the end of the last chorus, the second guitar drops out; the acoustic
and the first electric play the main riff in unison to the end, finishing
with an open D chord.
