Corrections very welcome.

Rhythm guitar

plays barre chords throughout, it's not very
prominent on the record. during verse there's
the odd strum on a G+G chord with a few A#A# chords
thrown in when the lead guitar moves up a fret.
Also when the bass guitar plays that short funky
section there's a D MajorD chord behind it.

for the chorus the rhythm plays :

A augmentedA   G+G FF  Bb majorBb   G+G   C majorC    A augmentedA
