Listen carefully, this is how itÂ’s actually played (no, iÂ’m not trolling). Use Audacity
or listen to it without vocals (or plug your headphones only halfway into your ipod to
remove vocals)

Chorus (Rhythm chords), play whichever you like
The first one is rhythm + lead combined and in my opinion
sounds better
