Hey, this isn't perfect, but it sounds pretty good.
Intro:
D chord
(hit the open D occasionally)
[-2---]
[-3---]
Keep playing that with everything muted except for last note throughout the verses. Then repeat.
Chorus:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/surfer_blood/take_it_easy_tab.html )
Play the D power chord quietly
[---]
[---]
[A][G]
(Optional chorus if you have a second guitarist)
I'd use this part as a bass riff, but if you want to play it on guitar, play this.
Bridge:
Now repeat intro and then mute the intro the same way for the verses.
For the next chorus, instead of playing the D power chord you are gonna pluck it like this:
I like to play this with a Chorus and Overdrive pedal.
Enjoy!
