This song has frustrated me for so long - no matter what I did or how I played it, it NEVER sounded
like the record. The time signature isn't hard, once you get a feel for it, but the secret sauce
turned out to be the power chord fingering - it's not standard. For example, if you play a G5, and listen
to the record, it sounds like a C5 - if you play a C5, and listen to the record, it sounds like a G5; the
secret is you basically play both chords at once. Once I learned that, the rest of the song was easy.
 
Verses are in 5/4 time, chorus is in 4/4 time. You sing in 4/4 through the entire song, so good luck!
 
For the final bridge/chorus, just hit the G5/D once and let it ring until the next one.
 
Chord Fingerings (these are very, VERY important if you want to sound like the record)

G5/D - 10-10-12-12-x-x
