I find it easiest to use my thumb when playing the lower notes.
(pay more attention to the rhythm and the feel than to the numbers)

A--5-5-5-5-5--3---4---5--|

Then there are a bunch of chords that I don't feel like figuring out right now
and this lick right before the harmonica solo:
E---3------------------------------|
B---3------------------------------|
G---4---------------------------3--|
D---5---------------------3--5-----|
A---5------------3--4--5-----------|
E---3------3--6--------------------|
After the harmonica solo the rhythm guitar goes into this riff:
E----------------------------------------------------|

G-------------------------------5-0-7-5----7-5-------|
D---5---7-7-----5---7-7----5----5-0-7-5--0-7-5-0-5-7-|
A-0-5-0-7-7---0-5-0-7-7--0-5-0--3-0-5-3--0-5-3-0-5-7-|
E-0-3-0-5-5---0-3-0-5-5--0-3-0-------------------3-5-|
During this part, the other guitar plays something like this:
E------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------|
G------------------------------------|
D--------7-------------7-------------|
A------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------|
Follow the tab here loosely.Just play it in rhythm and it should sound alright:
(Palm mute)
bend it when it sounds appropriate

Write me a letter
Write me a letter
Write me today
I'm goin away
Write me a letter
Write me a letter
Write me today
I'm goin away
Well I've been away forever, suicide's crossin' my mind,
But I'll never never never never never get so far behind.
I said, the ways of the night are evil
With eyes that love the day,
But I'll never never never never never get so far away.
I said write me, write me, write me.
I said write me, write me, write me.
Well there's nothin' I can see that'd ever make Me want to be without her
She's good, she's good to me.
Said there's no way to explain the kind of feeling That you get out in the rain
She's good, she's good to me.
See this emptiness inside it makes me scream It make me crawl out of my high,
She's good, she's good to me.
I love her.
Write me a letter, write me a letter, write it today, I'm goin' away.
Well I've been away forever, suicide's crossin' my mind,
But I'll never never never never never get so far behind.
Well I've been so many places hidin' from the wind and the rain,
But you could write me a letter for to save me from a goin' insane.
I said write me, write, write, write me.
Write me, write, write, write me.
Write me, write, write, write.
I said write me, write, write, write me.
Write me, write, write, write me.
Don't write me baby.
