Breakdown

Intro

The shimmering "Don Henley - Boys Of
 Summer" thing in the background is 
something
along these lines :
E|-------------------------------|
B|-5-4---5-4---5-4---5-4---5-4---|
G|-----6-----6-----6-----6-----6-|
D|-------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------|

Verse and intro

Your basic 2-chord progression.  
Strum to the rhythm.  Play them open
 for the
intro, and then roll it back to 
single palm-muted notes for the 
verses.

A   C#   A   C#  -

Pre-Chorus

Open power chords.

Continues after the ad
B  C#  B  C#  B  C#  A  B

Then this tasty little lick to 
transition into the chorus.
E|---------------|| 
B|---------------|| 
G|---------------|| 
D|-----1-2--1----|| 
A|-2-4---------2-|| 
E|---------------|| 

Chorus:

Simple power chords will suffice.  
I'll synch this up with the lyrics 
to give
you a better feel for the rhythm.

(A)      (B)                  (B)
I'm gonna drive and never ever 
  (C#)
slow down
(A)      (B)           (B)   (C#)
I'm gonna drive until I break down
(A)           (B)                
I'm packing my things and getting
(B)        (C#)
 outta this town
(A)      (B)           (B)   (C#)
I'm gonna drive until I break down.

Bridge & Solo

The backing chords for the bridge 
and solo are the same as the verse.

A  C#  A  C#

The solo is a total Nirvana 
scenario...it pretty much just 
follows the vocal
pattern of the verses.
E|-------------------------------
B|----------5~----------5-4~-----
G|-4-6-4-6-----4-6-4-6-------4-6-
D|-------------------------------
A|-------------------------------
E|-------------------------------

E|------------------||

G|4-6-4---4-6-6-6--6|| 
D|------6-----------||

E|-------------------------------
B|---------/9~~---------5-4-5--4-
G|-4-6-4-6-----4-6-4-6-----------

G|4h6-4~~---------------||

Then back into the chorus.
