Guitar one repeats this riff through the verse. Guitar two backs guitar one
with a similar riff. When Steven says "pack" in the line "pack my bags I`m
gone", one of the guitars plays this riff:
C5 Bb5

D----5----3-------------------5----5--3------5----5--3------------|
A-------------5----3---1------3----3--1------3----3--1------------|

The verse riff appears sporadically throughout the song. During the
harmonica part at the end, the rhythm guitar plays this:

Yeah I`ve tried ev`ry thing just to get along with you
But now I`m gonna tell ya just what I`m gonna do
