This is a great song by one of my all-time favorite bands, Goldfinga!
The song, does, however, have lots of little bits and pieces to play. So,

Then repeat chorus, playing a barred G-C-G instead of the
(C)-(D)-G part at the end.
Next: repeat intro 2x, then lead guitar plays this while 2nd guitar plays
a D with palm muting:
 
 E-----------------------------------------------------/10-
 B-----------7-8-7-8-------7-8-7-8-9-----7-8-7-------------
 G-----(6)-7---------9---7-------------7-------9-7-9-7-----
 D-(7)-----------------7-------------7---------------------
 A---------------------------------------------------------
 E---------------------------------------------------------

Last verse repeats the words from the first verse, except it's played
with barre chords.
Riff: ("yeah just by trying. . .")
 
 E---------------------
 B---------------------
 G---------------------
 D--4-4-4-4-4-4--2--0--
 A---------------------
 E---------------------

Whew! That's pretty much all I've got. It took me a while to figure this
one out, and there may be some other, better ways to play this song. If
you have any questions, comments, changes, or maybe even requests, e-mail
me and I'll see what I can do you for.
