Matt kind of changes it up a bit. So shuffle between this and
the intro riff for the verses or mix it up however you want.

Chorus
Note: Same as the verses, again, mix it up, alteratively,
live he plays something similar to this:

C Am F G
e|----------------------------------|
B|----5-----1--1---1-----3--3-------|
G|----5-----2--2---2-----4--4-------|
D|----5-----2--2---3-----5--5-------|
A|--3---3-0--------3-----5--5-------|
E|---------------1---1/3------------|

Listen to the song to get the rhythm. Also, fast arpeggios
of the chords sound rather accurate to the recording.

Then there is the transition riff, which I cannot tab out.
The chord is C, so just play that and mess around in the scale.

"Baby! Baby! I Was Made For You!"

Single Strums and use vibrato

F F#/D7 G
e|-1~-----2~------3~----|
B|-1~-----1~------3~----|
G|-2~-----2~------4~----|
D|-3~-----0~------5~----|
A|-3~-----x~------5~----|
E|-1~-----2~------3~----|



Then the song repeats.

Live, he also plays a solo at the end, and all I can really
determine is that he quotes "Blue Moon" in it.
