g---17---
d---17---
a---15---

Then Crispian yells 'huh, two, three, fawr'  and the song kicks in and 
the comes the interlude. 

Interlude--This is used a lot during the song.  It occurs 8X at the beginning and then usually in intervals of 2 from there on out(between the 'Na-na' chords, before the chorus, during solo, etc.).  It's just a C chord. Listen to the song for rhythm.  The first bit goes along with the bass part a little.

d---10---10         d---10---
a---10---x-      or a---10---
E---8-----6         E----8---

Also, the 5th, 6th, and 7th times this occurs in the beginning, there is a little somthing else that goes like this.  Again use the song for rhythm...

e---11---
b---11---
g---10---

Then the 'Na'na' chords...

'Na-na' chords--I know it's a lame heading, but cut me some slack. The chords are Ab->Eb->Bb->F.  Here's how I play it...

e-----------------------
b-------8---6---10-----
g---5---8---7---10-----
d---6---8---8---10-----
a---6---6---x----8-----
E---4-------6-----------

Then the chorus...

Chorus--The chords to this section are C7#9->F->Bb.  Then when the band all hits together('Oh early in the morning...'), you just hit the C7#9.  Here are the chords...

e---------------
b---4-----------
g---3---2---3---
d---2---3---3---
a---3---3---1---
E-------1-------

There are little fills in there too, so here they are.  When Crispian sings 'Hush' in his falsetto, he plays this after it.  Make sure you click on your wah...

g---10(1/2)p8-----
d---------------10

Use you wah for this part too.  When he sings 'Early in the morning...', play these unison bends...

b---4-----8-------13-----
g---6(u8)-10(u12)--15(u17)

One other little thing that Crispian does that adds a little variety is in the second chorus, after singing 'Hush' is his falsetto, he moves the C7#9 chord up an octave.  It looks like so...

e--------
b---16---
g---15---
d---14---
a---15---
E--------

That should pretty much do it.  Oh yeah, the end.  Just play the 'Na-na' chords then hit a C chord and slide off.  Huzzah.
