G|--------12-------12-----7-----7-----7-----7-| variations on this riff,
D|--14-------14-------9-----9-----9-----9-----| which are easy to figure out
A|--------------------------------------------| once you know these chords.
E|--------------------------------------------|

The next bit is quite hard to make it sound good on a guitar, but use a lot of reverb 
a bit of distortion.

Epic explosion at 2:30 :
"Then we could be dancing..."

Follow the rhythm with these chords:

e|---------------------|
B|---6----8---13---6---|
G|---5----7---12---5---|
D|---7----9---14---7---|
A|---8---10---15---8---|
E|---------------------|

Then for the next part:
"To hold you in time..."

e|-----------|
B|---8---6---|
G|---7---5---|
D|---9---7---|
A|--10---8---|
E|-----------|

After return to the verse part. This should give you the key parts to the song.
Honestly, I think this is the best Animal Collective song ever, except maybe "Purple Bottle".
It's definitely their best on "Merriweather Post Pavillion". Buy it, it's worth every 
penny.
