Here are the chords that are played for the verses, pre-chorus, chorus and breakdown.
The verse is played with the riff and the addition of another chord, either G, Em or D.
That chord is played by strumming eighth notes. The chorus chords are played by
strumming 16th notes loosely following the rhythm of the vocalist.

Sounds best tuned half step down and capo on first fret.

The pre-chorus repeats after verse 2 (before breakdown). Also after the breakdown the first 2 lines of the prechorus repeat (guitar is silent for the first word "I've"), then the chorus repeats a final time. When you get to "Even when I dream all day", repeat" day" a for 1-2 C/D/Em progressions (say it in eighth notes mostly with some splashed in 16ths). This transitions into "oh-oh whoa oh oh" which repeats 3 times. The final C chord doesn't have any words on it, then the final D/Em has "Oh heyyyyy".
