There are two parts to this song, the 4 chord riff (such as the intro), and the 3 chord riff. Listen to the song to get the gist of which goes where, and how to strum. (I like to strum a couple of times really fast, then let it ring, then change chords). Riff 1: A F G B (Barre'd) Riff 2: Am G Em (Not Barre'd) I'm 99.9% sure about riff 2, but not riff 1. It sounds about right. You could play the barred chords regularly, but for speed, I stick with them.
