Flawless dude, thanks for giving me clues. But you posted an "acoustic" version from an album version (with electric guitars, according to the Jay Leno live video). For the real acoustic version (solo guitar), I suggest you to take a look at the Howard Stern show session (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKOv68AOmV4). In this one, we can see that the chorus is slightly different : e||--------------------------------------| B||--------------------------------------| G||----------8-8-8-8-9-9-9-9-11-11-11-11-| D||--7-7-7-7-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x--x--x--x--| A||--x-x-x-x-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-9--9--9--9--| E||--5-5-5-5-----------------------------| (2x) e||--------------------------------------| B||--------------------------------------| G||----------8-8-8-8-9-9-9-9-11-11-11-11-| D||--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x--x--x--x--| A||--x-x-x-x-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-9--9--9--9--| E||--0-0-0-0-----------------------------| e||----------------------------------|| B||----------------------------------|| G||---------8-8-8-8-9-9-9-9-4-4-4-4--|| D||-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x--|| A||-x-x-x-x-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-2-2-2-2--|| E||-0-0-0-0--------------------------||

Isn't the 2nd bar of the chorus like this? (like the electric version) e||----------------------------------| B||----------------------------------| G||----------8-8-8-8-9-9-9-9-6-6-6-6-| D||--7-7-7-7-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-| A||--x-x-x-x-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-4-4-4-4-| E||--5-5-5-5-------------------------|
