This one has a very tricky rhythm. As always, I added the times 
of when each part comes in. I have tabbed this off Listener Supported Video. 
The way he plays the intro and verse he mutes the low E and the B and high E strings. This again is a very strange way to play. But then again, it?s Dave Matthews. 
 
Intro -

                          *           * = strum this chord several times 
	 
Then the Intro: 1:39 
 
Then play the Verse: 1:51                                                                 
 
Chorus ? (?Wondering if you?d come along . . .?, 2:17)                  
----------------------------------------------------------------| 
----------------------------------------------------------------| 
-5--5--5--5--5----5--5--5--5--5--5----5--5--5--5----5--5--5--5--|I play it

Post Chorus ? (?Or I will go . . .?, 2:36)  
-----------------------|--------------------| 
-----------------------|--------------------|The second bar is when Dave 
-----------------------|--------------------|is playing with the band and he

-----7-------5------8--|--x--7--x--5--x--8--| 
-5-------8-------6-----|--5--5--8--8--6--6--| 
                                           
Then the Verse: 2:42 
 
Then the Chorus: 3:08 
 
Then the Verse: 3:34 
 
Then play the Chorus: 3:58 
 
Then play the Intro: 4:24 
 
Then the Verse: 4:36 
                                  
 
Outro ? (5:02)                                                            
----------------------------------------------------------------| 
----------------------------------------------------------------| 
-5--5--5--5--5----5--5--5--5--5--5----5--5--5--5----5--5--5--5--| 
-3--3--3--3--3----2--2--2--2--2--2------------------------------| 
--------------------------------------5--5--5--5----3--3--3--3--| 
----------------------------------------------------------------| 
 
The way Dave plays this next part he mutes every string but the one he is hitting. It is very weird.  
  
This is palm muted . . .          
---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
----------------------------------------------5----5---5-5-----5---5----5--|

---------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
                                                                               
Play this 8 times -

-x--x--x--x--x--x--|(6:57) 
-x--7--x--5--x--8--| 
-5--5--8--8--6--6--| 
                        
He double times the above riff at the very end. It's madness! 
                                                        
That?s All She Wrote !!
