    The funkey little riff during the verses goes something like this:
  • (Clean with a little echo)
    ---------------------------|
    --------------------------.| Palm mute it and repeat for the length of
  • ----------------------H----| the verse (8 times I think)
    -----9-9-7-7-9-X-9-7-7-9--.|
    -7-7-----------------------|

    Chorus
  • Here's how I play the chords: (A little distortion & chorus)
    G C D
    -3---3---2-|
  • -3---3---3-| I won't bother putting this part in tab,
    -O---O---2-| just strum each chord where it says to
    -O---2---O-| and then arpeggiate the notes of the chord
  • -X---3-----| letting the notes ring.
    -3---------|
     
  • G D
    But I can see you, you brown skin shining in the sun
    D C
  • You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
    D D
    I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
  • D C
    After the boys of summer have gone

    The second verse is basically the same as the first, but it has this funkey
    lick thrown in at the end:
  • (Distorted)
    -----------------12~~~--|
    -/--/8------10^F~~~~~~--|
  • -/9-(9)-9-7-------------|
    ------------------------|
    ------------------------|
  • ------------------------|
     
    Then there's the second Chorus... same chords as the first
  •  
    Then there's the Bridge:
    (Clean with a little echo)
  • ------------------------------------|
    ----------------P------------------.| This is repeated thorught
    -9-9-7-7-------9-7----9--7----------| the bridge.
  • ---------10-10-----10-------10-10--.|
    ------------------------------------|
    ------------------------------------|
  • (Palm Muted)
     
    Here's the riffs for the part after the bridge:
  •  
    > P >
    -10-7------||---P-----||-----H--P-----------------|--------------------------|
  • ------10~~-||-12-10~~-||-10-8-10-8----H-P---------|(8)----8---8-10-10/12-(8)-|

  • Then there's the outro:
