	new intro, and then play this afterward.

        it seems Sam plays those chords, and uses a pull off at one point
        on the B string with his pinky, two frets up from the barring finger.

NOW.
it has come to my attention that my chorus has had some problems
i'll leave that way to play it there, in case you prefer it, 
but i believe this may be the way Sam plays it,
but im not positive about all the notes on the high e string.
some of them, like with the G and D chords, i am sure about though.

UPDATED AGAIN!-damn tricky songs. haha.
              -this update is much harder, if you want, you can 
               simply play the other version, or mix them together.
              -( )- this is for optional notes.
	      -new update, where some of the early notes are like the
               new notes in the intro.
Chorus(ver2):
e|-------(2)-----------------------3-----3---------------|
B|--------3------3-----3-----3-----3-----3-----3---(2)---|
G|--------2--2---2-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0----2----|
D|-------0----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-----0-2----|
A|-0-2-4----0---4--4--2--2--0--0--------------2--2--0----|
E|--------------------------------3--3--2--2-------------|

----------------------------------------------------------------
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_NEW UPDATE!!_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
----------------------------------------------------------------

So..basically what is above is what I used to play,
and I've since written a better version. Because I play it on youtube,
I've gotten requests for this other version, so here it is.
Also, note that i use generally my thumb and index only, though it's  not required.
It is, however, how same plays it.

____________________________________________________________________________

NOTE: for the Pre-Chorus, the last two chords are now different.
      it seems Sam plays those chords, and uses a pull off at one point
      on the B string with his pinky, two frets up from the barring finger.
      it looks something like this(it might be a little complicated, but it's
      just what i play, so don't worry about it being exact):
e|---6----------6----|--5----------------------------------------------------|
B|------6--8p6---6-6-|-----5--7~---------------------------------------------|
G|---7------------7--|--6-----6~---------------------------------------------|
