This song has more than one guitar part in it but I've tabbed it for one guitar by
in drop D and playing the riff thats in the verse within the bar chords.
Tabbed by: Jacob Wilksch
Tuning: Drop D
This Riff runs through the whole first verse:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-7-7--7-7--7--7-10-7-10-7-10-12--7-7--7-7--7--3-3-3-3-2-2------------------|
A|-7-7--7-7--7--7-10-7-10-7-10-12--7-7--7-7--7--3-3-3-3-2-2------------------|
D|-7-7--7-7--7--7-10-7-10-7-10-12--7-7--7-7--7--3-3-3-3-2-2------------------|
Take this salesman for example
A selfless act of bravery
Now he's rewarded with free favours
Luck smiled at him and he smiled back

Then before the chorus it alternates between some version of Dm and C, but I'm not
sure.
Bm G
And then the rain
Bm G
And then the rain
A Bm
And then the rain
G A
Beats down on me
The second verse is slightly different when he starts singing
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-7-7--7-7--7--10-10-10-10-10---7-7--7-7--7--3-3-3-3-2-2--------------------|
A|-7-7--7-7--7--10-10-10-10-10---7-7--7-7--7--3-3-3-3-2-2--------------------|
E|-7-7--7-7--7--10-10-10-10-10---7-7--7-7--7--3-3-3-3-2-2--------------------|
Take this proud father for example
His son means the whole world to him
Take this junkie for example
Spoiled rotten since his childhood
Well thats practically it, there are little variations in the song but you get the beat
work them out quite easily from this.
