Chorus: the main chord progression is as follows (2 beats for each chord):

        A  C  D  E  G  (yes, 10 beats in all). This is played twice (1st
chorus) and is accompanied by a riff similar to this: 

E-----------------------------------|--------------------------------
B-----------------------------------|-13-12-13-14--------------------
G------14-12------------------------|--------------14-13-12----------
D--------------14-13-12-------------|-----------------------14-13-12-
A------------------------14--13--12-|--------------------------------
E-----------------------------------|--------------------------------
   1 & 2 ... 
                    another guitar is playing this during the 1st chorus:
E-----------------|---(w/ vibrato)------------------------------------
B-----------------|---------------------------------------------------
G-----------------|-----14----14--------------------------------------
D-----------------|--14----14-----repeated all through the chorus-----
A---14---13---12--|---------------------------------------------------
E-----------------|---------------------------------------------------
                     1  2  3  4 ... 

then back to verse (same as first)

2nd chorus: plays A C D E G progression 4 times along with similar guitar riff:

E-----------------------------------------------------
B-13-12-13-14-----------------------------------------
G--------------14-13-12*------------------------------
D-------------------------14-13-12*-------------------
A-----------------------------------14---13---12---etc...(improvise)
E-----------------------------------------------------

*slight bend and release on these notes (done very quickly)
  
 The other guitar plays:
   (as before)
   for the 1st half of the chorus,  then for the 2nd half 
        (ie. 10 beats)
E-------------------------------------------------------
B-----(w/ vibrato)----------------------------14----12--
G-------14----14---------------------------14----14----- 
D----14----14----etc..----------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------
     1  2  3  4 ...                        1  2  3  4 ... 

Then after that, you're on your own.
