 (Hold the final D on "good" for 4 measures)

-----------------------------------------
There are at least 4 guitars on the recording (possibly as many as 6). 
However, the 3 main ones are an acoustic (John strumming the chords), the lead 
guitar (Michael) and another electric (an overdub). The lead guitar plays the 
intro and solo as shown below, plays nothing during the verses, and power chords 
during the chorus.

|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|

The fill shown is first played at the end of the first chorus.
During the second chorus, the overdub guitar plays
  +   +   +   +     +   +   +   +
|-----------------|-----------------|
|----/5-----------|---3-5-----------|

And then the fill again.

The fill appears again at the end of the solo.

During the third chorus, the overdub guitar plays
  +   +   +   +     +   +   +   +     +   +   +   +     +   +   +   +

And then the fill again

During the fourth chorus, the overdub guitar plays much the same as what it did
for the third, except for the fact that the last measure shown is held for a 
further 3 measures, before playing the fill twice.
