So idea on guitar 1s part in the chorus and bridge? me and my friend might cover this if I(or anyone else) can figure out the other part for those bits.

Anybody know the acoustic version of this gem?

Love it.

just play the second guitar's part. that's all Brian does live or acoustic

Good to know! Thanks

I don't think these are actually the same chords, but if those barre chords are a ridiculous stretch for your fingers, you can try this. I've been playing it this way on acoustic and it sounds pretty good to my ears.

OMG, seriously?

Although I've been playing guitar for quite a long time now, there's no way I can play that :/

you can. just make a big stretch. Sometimes these chords are used quickly between other chords.
