The figure looks like this in G: E ----------------------------------------------- B ----------------------------------------------- G ----------------------------------------------- D ---5-5--------5-5------------------------------ A ---5-5-6-5----5-5-6-5-------------------------- E ---3-3-----6--3-3-----6-3---------------------- Just move that up and down the neck as the chord changes. Some of the other chords, mainly in the "chorusy" section ("Plow through rest area...") are just barre chords.
