We have an official Nude tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
This tab shows only Jonny's guitar parts in the song. The tuning is EAEGBE (the D string is raised up to an
E) and it's played on one of his usual Fender Telecasters, most likely on a clean Vox AC30 amp.
 
These are the shapes he uses, considering the altered tuning:
 
    G#m  G#  A   E  C#m   B
e|---4---4---5---0---9----7---|
B|---4---4---5---0---9----7---|

E|---4---4---5---0---9----7---|
A|---6---6---7---2---11---9---|

they're not gonna happen.
