Intro:

Tab: (This is the actual strumming patterns; hope it helps)
-2--0--2----3-3--3-- This is the first half of the pair; I have tried to
-3--0--2----3-3--3-- approximate the timing with spacing between chords.
-2--2--4----0-0--0-- It also sound better if the first G is an upstroke,
-0--2--4----0-0--0-- and the following two G's are downstrokes.
-x--0--2----2-2--2--
-x--x--2----3-3--3--
-2--0--2--2-2----3-- This is the second half of the pair; again, timing is
-3--0--2--2-2----3-- approximated with spacing between chords.
-2--2--4----4----0-- If you can squeeze in an upstroke of those bottom two
-0--2--4----4----0-- strings between downstrokes of a Bmsus2, it will
-x--0--2----2----2-- sound great.
-x--x--2----2----3--
Then the D to Dsus4 is simply strumming, listen to the record (I know... but it
is the best way to get it all!)
Verse 1:
Chorus:
Intro is played here: (play pair of rhythms twice, but no D/Dsus4)

Verse 2: (Played exactly the same as Verse 1, see above)
Chorus (Same as above)

Bridge: (Cliff has no part here... Derek's part is the only one
being played; it is below)

Derek: Clean guitar, played over Cliff
Intro: (These are weird chords, I have tabbed them out below. It took
me a good 5 minutes to even figure out a theoretical name for
them, which are, btw, correct!)
Aug--sus4

Verse:
(*Note on verse*: because E and Asus2 are both played on so many open
strings, you can get a clearer sound if right as you change chords,
you use your (free) pinky finger to mute the strings, almost as if you
Chorus:
Bridge:
(*Note on bridge*: This pair is played 8 times underneath Cliff's vocals.
To play it as on the record, pick through the chords, do not strum them.
A pattern focused on the high 4 strings will serve you best. The 7th
and 8th times, quickly strumming the high 4 right as you change, then
continuing to pick them will sound best. If you have questions on this,
let me know. That's what I'm here for :-) )
The pattern is exactly the same as Cliff's
