This song only has really one chord, So the way you play it is important.
The first stroke is down and muted, the second is up (dont mute this.)

C#----2------------------|

That one chord is the most of the song, but there are a few add-ins which John Lee uses
spice it up a bit.

Note: To get this playing pattern down you need to listen to the song a few times, and
will get it. takes some practice, as I am still learning this myself, but it gets
as you go. Good Luck, have fun.
