I've found that there are two ways to play this- in standard tuning with a capo at the 
fret and in open G.  I prefer playing it in open G, but playing it in standard with the 
allows for easier soloing.

VERSION 1

Tuning: EADGBe (Standard), with a capo at the third fret.

Main Riff/Chorus/Solo Rhythm (in relation to the capo):
E------------------------|
B------------------3--2--|
G------------------2--2--|
D--------2---------4--2--|
A-----------2------------|
E--0h3h4------3p0--------|

Then on the last time through:
E----------------------|
B-------------------2--|
G-------------------2--|
D--------2----------2--|
A-----------2----------|
E--0h3h4------3p0------|

Verses:
G  C/G  F/G

Pre-Chorus:
Em  D  C  D
Em  D  C  D
Em  A  B C  D

Bridge:
D  C

The chords listed above are the actual pitch, not the chord shapes in relation to the 
 The chord shapes in relation to the capo for the verses are E  A/E  D/E, meanwhile the 
of the chords can be played normally by barring them.

D------------------0--0--|

The rest of the song is the same, with the chords adjusted for open G as follows:
