The main riff is picked.
For the intro it is as above, D5 for 4 bars, C for 1 bar. Then the same pattern but D5 x2 C x1, and
back to D5 before the verse begins.
The e string is often muted to varying degrees through the song.

A D5 begins on the "know" of "I think you know" and continues for 2 bars before the G of the break
riff begins.
No Capo
Though if strumming, try the D (instead of D5) and C barred in the "A position" at 5 and 3,
with G at 3 in the "E position". It also sounds good with the D and C barred in the "E position"
at 10 and 8. Strumming DUU nicely approximates the riff especially if you only hit the bass note on the Down.

version 2
Here is the main part played throughout the song. I
don''t think it varies much, but it''s a little hard to tell
with the bass droning on near the end.

Cannot hear what you''re saying
Could I tell you so
And I can''t leave my troubles
And I''m going home
sleep
Under deep
You know
While the cold winter waitin''
While you (stumble home)
All these things we were searchin''
Now we just don''t know
sleep
Under deep
I think you know
For the rhymes of an hour
Now I''m goin'' home
And I can''t believe I''m nothin''
''Cause I''m coming DOWN
sleep
Under deep
Do you know
