The first chord is an E, so that means it alternates between E and Emaj7. I hear the second chord as a G#m, so it alternates between weird chord that I wrote as G#m#5 and G#m. But you're really just playing the same two notes over both chords. On the album Brad plays a lead guitar with those notes (and a couple more) but if you want to play this as chords I find it playable and okay sounding around a barre in the 4th fret with these chords: E - x76454 Emaj7 - x76444 G#m#5 - 4x6454 G#m - 466444
