This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Verse:

the beat before the verse with the same hammer-on riff
as in the intro.
Guitar 4 occasionally doubles the hammer-on riff
________________________________________*w/ Fill 1
Ain't it good to think about the weather
Doesn't seem to be time for that no more
It's hard to hear when you're busy sayin what you want said
Well what you want said, it ain't clear
Fill 1 (Guitar 2)

Prechorus:
Same as before, except that Guitar 3 plays Fill 2
below instead of the last measure of silence before
the chorus. It is also doubled by a 12-string electric
starting with Fill 2.
You wanna be where they still open doors for you
It's not hard for them to remember you at all
They light your cigarette and tell their friends
you used to love them
Where they remember your name
Fill 2 (Guitar 3)
|-------------------| |-------------3-----| |--------0-------0--| |-----2-------------| |--3----------------| |-------------------|
Chorus:
Guitar 1 plays straight chords throughout the chorus.
Guitar 2 plays (roughly) the tab below. There are some
notes that are held longer than others, or played more
than others, but you'll just have to listen for that.
Guitar 2 is also doubled by another distorted electric
during the choruses.
Guitar 3 plays and holds a D chord every four measures.
