For the chords we are not so sure of the exact notes so we play:
e-(7)-(3)--0--- This is played up until the
B-(7)-(3)--0--- end of the chorus repeatedly,
G-(8)-(4)--1--- until the "Your priceless
D--9---5---2--- advice" where instead of
A--9---5---2--- going E-7-3-0-7-3-0 it goes
E--7---3---0--- E-7-3-0-3-0-3. I hope you
follow that as it is pretty simple.

The verse ends with that Bb5 pattern with distortion. Then the chorus is
just those chords in the verse but with bent notes mixed in.

*bend 1/2
Then the bridge repeats this below pattern twice, then does that famous Bb5
pattern from the chorus:
E5 Db5
-------------------------------
-------------------------------
-------------------------------
--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3---0--
--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3---0--
--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3---0--
At the end of the song, the Bb5 pattern is played as normal, but let the
notes ring, and that's what creates that weird guitar sound.
And it ends with this
fdbk.

The difference between Rhy fig 1 & Rhy fig 1a is that in Rhy fig 1a
in the 3rd A5 you also play the lower strings, or in other words you play
an A (577655) instead of an A5 power chord.
Intro.-
In the intro you play Rhy fig 1 or 1a several times, (alternate between
them, listen to the record so you can know when to play each one) about
four, then continue playing it while a second guitar enters playing this:
Fill A
