It's the same for the other two verses.

*CHORUS:

 E------------------------5--5--7--7--------|

                      "...Big Kahuna..."

 B--------------8--8--5--5------------------|
 G--------------9--9--5--5------------------|
 D-----2--------9--9--7--7------------------|
 A-0-3---3-0-0--7--7--7--7------------------|
 E--------------7--7--5--5------------------|
           "...tide was high..."

 E----------------5--5--7--7--5--5--7--7---0---0------------|
 B----------------5--5--8--8--5--5--8--8---0---1------------|
 G----------------5--5--9--9--5--5--9--9---0---2------------|
 D-------2--------7--7--9--9--7--7--9--9---0---2------------|
 A---0-3---3-0----7--7--7--7--7--7--7--7---0---0------------|
 E-0--------------5--5--7--7--5--5--7--7---0---0------------|
               "...I   begin body  surfing for my life."

 Then, play Intro, verse and chorus parts again. After chorus part this is next:

 E------------------------------------------------|
 B------------------------------------------------|
 G------------------------------------------------|
 D-----2--------2-----------2------0--------------|
 A-0-0------0-0-----------5------0----------------|
 E--------0-----------3-3------3------------------|(X2 times)

Then, the chords for the next part are:
      Am                GMaj
 E----5-----         -----3-----|
 B----5-----         -----3-----|
 G----5-----         -----4-----|
 D----7-----  and    -----5-----|
 A----7-----         -----5-----|
 E----5-----         -----3-----|

So, you have to listen to the song to learn the rythm. It's not difficult.

   This riff is heard during this part:
 E------------------------------------------------|
 B------------------------------------------------|
 G------------------------------------------------|
 D------------------------------------------------|
 A------------------------------------------------|
 E-5-5-5-5-----5-5-5-5----3-3-3-3-----3-3-3-3-----|

Finally, this song finishes with the chorus part again.
