The only guitar part in this song are the fast arpeggios in the verse.
These arpeggios are played by both a clean electric guitar and an acoustic
guitar, in order to create that massive sound.
The hard thing here it the picking pattern - particularly those two up strokes
in a row. (And singing on top of that?!) Remember always to start out
practicing fast things slowly and then gradually build up the speed.

(All the arpeggios are played 2 or 4 times, so I just
notated that instead of writing the whole bar again.)

Chorus:
There's no guitar playing in the Chorus, but here's the chords anyway.
(There IS a guitar playing some typical Kashmir-noise here though,
but I have no idea how it's made.)

LYRICS
**********
stay a little while
there's an arrow
tucked into my spine
walk with me a while
like an indian trailing
my tail feathers
through dry rivers
and plains
be my time friend
who covers back and front
a shelter from the sun
a soothing hand in the twilight
my ignition
my permission to let go let go
and just go
i'm afraid to admit all the things i regret
now it's said
but the night came too soon
and the day is running late
it's hard to change
the indian that dwells inside this chest
with furrows in your brow
you're still a rainbow
crawling up the sky
with droplets in your eye
you're still sure of your pathways
so i'll sway in your wash
too afraid to admit all the things i regret
now it's said
though the picture that passes our window
has changed
it's hard to change
the indian that dwells inside this chest
