Here's the verse guitar part. It's not exactly the way it's played
on the track. I think the guy just adlibs when he feels like it.
But this is the basic chord structure (it's a movable 'C'-chord
shape). Later on, after the solo, he starts strumming instead of
arpeggiating. You can also fool around with the chords for the
chorus to make it chunkier as the song progresses.

VERSE
The intro/verse uses just C and the "moveable C" that you use in "Man
on the Moon" by REM. For the last unit, you just change to a Cadd9.
Or you can call it a Csus2, or a Cadd2, or whatever, no none cares.
If anyone cares, that's probably because you're doing music theory
homework, in which case you'd call it a ninth chord.
Dsus4 (D11) C Major D11 C9

0 5 4 0 X X X 3 2 0 1 X 0 5 4 0 5 X X 3 2 0 3 0
The picking goes like this:

CHORUS
For the chorus ("Written down..."), it's this: and end with this:
e-----------------------------------------------|--------------------
|
B-------------------------------3---------------|--------------------
|
G-------------------------------2---------------|----5----4----------
|
D-------------------------------0---------------|----5----4----3-----
|
A----3----3--5----0----0--0-----------0---------|----3----2----3-----
|
D----3----3--5----0----0--0-----------0---------|--------------3-----
Then one guitar transitions with this figure (clean):
G-------0-------0-------
D-----------------------
A----3------2-----------
D-------------------3---
While the rhythm guitar (heavy) plays this to pick
it back up for the new section:
A----3----3--3--5-------
D----3----3--3--5-------
And then you go on to the B section, which starts with an awesome riff.
e-------------------------------------------------------
B----3----3--3------------------------------3----3--3---
G----2----2--2------------------------------2----2--2--- etc.
D----0----0--0------------------------------0----0--0---
A-----------------3-h5--5--5--3--3-h5-------------------
D-----------------3-h5--5--5--3--3-h5--X--X-------------
You can also play it this way:
e-----------------------------------------
B-----------------------------------------
G----7----7--7----------------------------
D----7----7--7----------------------------
A----5----5--5----3-h5--5--3--3--5--------
D-----------------3-h5--5--3--3--5--X--X--
I don't think the cops will catch you no matter which one you use.
I just like the brighter sound of the first one better myself.
For the "Keep on time" section (B section verse), play this with palm
muting on the A string and a nice open growl on the fifths:
e---------------------------------------------------------------
B---------------------------------------------------------------
G---------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------------------------------------------
A----3--5--5--3--5--3-----3----3--3--5--------------------------
D----------------------X--3----3--3--5--------------------------
I'm sorry that I can't give you the solo, but I can tell you that it
goes over the main B section riff. After the solo spirals upward and
everybody swings into that big, kick-ass crescendo, the rhythm guitar
plays these chords:
e-------------------------------------------------------
B-------------------------------------------------------
G----7------5-------------------------------------------
D----7------5------3------5-----------------------------
A----5------3------3------5-----------------------------
D------------------3------5-----------------------------
After that, it's back to the A section (verse-chorus) for a fade.
