This intro is almost as the

In the song there are a few guitar fills:
GUITAR FILL 1:

G/-11-11-9-9-9-----
D/-9—-9—-7-7-7-----

GUITAR FILL 2:

GUITAR FILL 3:

Graham play some strange chords during the verses. I saw the chords
from a live gig that I recorded. But I'll write 13 after them.
Here are the chords Graham plays in the song:
B13: (76x8xx)
Am13:(54x5xx) At least it’s what Graham plays, maybe.
E: (022100) (Graham doesn’t play this at all. He plays GUITAR FILL 3.)
G13: (32x4xx)
F?: (133200) Play with a low thumb.
A#13:(65x8xx)
C#: (x46664)
A: (577655) Play with a low thumb.
C#m: (x46654)
Graham often plays the bar chords with a low thumb. He doesn't play this
order all the way during the song. When you play the first two "13"
chords then bend the G string a little .But I think he uses some sort of
pedal that makes that "bending" sound.
I’m not sure if Damon plays an Am or an A.
