There is already a chord archive for this, but here is a tab
representation for the keyboardy part. This is just my interpretation, so
when you improve on it, please let me know!!

Add a little chorus and a tiny bit'a delay for the keyboard part, the
rhythm should be played with an electro-accoustic all the way through.

(Those naughty x's are supposed to give an idea of the strummed rhythm!)

Chord shapes:

Play all the chords in their open shape.

Strum this whole bit:

  Bm    D      G      D      G       D      E7
7 for a minute there...

Play a clean Bm for a bar or two, then, keep a phasing high EQ
fuzzy high gain distortion type sound going on a Bm for a
while and end with a fiddle of the volume on guitar while
feeding back. Put down guitar with 3/4 volume next to amp,
walk off and distress your neighbours with the effects still
squealing!!!

(These are what the effects are called on a Zoom 505!)

Note:
We do have the keyboard part worked out for keyboard, but we
play it with guitar.
