The funkey little riff during the verses goes something like this:
(Clean with a little echo)
---------------------------|
--------------------------.| Palm mute it and repeat for the length of
----------------------H----| the verse (8 times I think)
-----9-9-7-7-9-X-9-7-7-9--.|
-7-7-----------------------|
---------------------------|

Chorus
Here's how I play the chords:  (A little distortion & chorus)
 G   C   D
-3---3---2-
-3---3---3-	I won't bother putting this part in tab,
-O---O---2-	just strum each chord where it says to
-O---2---O-	and then arpeggiate the notes of the chord
-X---3-----	letting the notes ring.
-3---------

G		  D
But I can see you,  you brown skin shining in the sun
D				      C
You got your hair combed back and your  sunglasses on, baby
D		  D
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
D		  C
After the boys of summer have gone


The second verse is basically the same as the first, but it has this funkey
lick thrown in at the end:
(Distorted)
-----------------12~~~--|
-/--/8------10^F~~~~~~--|
-/9-(9)-9-7-------------|
------------------------|
------------------------|
------------------------|

Then there's the second Chorus... same chords as the first

Then there's the Bridge:
(Clean with a little echo)
------------------------------------|
----------------P------------------.|	This is repeated thorught
-9-9-7-7-------9-7----9--7----------|	the bridge.
---------10-10-----10-------10-10--.|
------------------------------------|
------------------------------------|
(Palm Muted)

Here's the riffs for the part after the bridge:

 > P		  >
-10-7------||---P-----||-----H--P-----------------|--------------------------|

-----------||---------||-------------------9------|--------------------------|

Then there's the outro:
