The way he plays it, he goes C#m, then you hear the slide to the E, then strum strum,
then F#, then strum strum, slide up to the C#m so the way he plays it... if you listen
to the acoustic version, almost sounds like 4 chords, but really it's only 3.
Then guitar 1 plays the foreground riff 1 :

Main Riff:
C#m
Came in from a rainy Thursday
E B
on the avenue
C#m E B
thought I heard you talking softly
C#m E B
I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio
C#m E B
still I can't escape the ghost of you
C#m
What is happened to it all?
G#m
Crazy, some say
B E
Where is the life that I recognize?
E
gone away
B F#m
But I won't cry for yesterday
A
there's an ordinary world
E B
somehow I have to find
B F#m
And as I try to make my way
A
to the ordinary world
A E
I will learn to survive
C#m
Passion or coincidence
E B
once prompted you to say
C3m E B
"Pride will tear us both apart"
C#m
Well now pride's gone out the window
E B
cross the rooftops, runaway
C#m E B
left me in the vacuum of my heart
C#m
What is happening to me?
G#m
Crazy, some say
B E
Where is my friend when I need you most?
E
Gone away
B F#m
But I won't cry for yesterday
A
there's an ordinary world
E B
somehow I have to find
B F#m
And as I try to make my way
A
to the ordinary world
A E
I will learn to survive

C#m
Papers in the roadside
E B
tell of suffering and greed
C3m E B
feared today, forgot tomorrow
C#m
ooh, here beside the news
E B
of holy war and holy need
C#m E B
ours is just a little sorrowed talk
E
(Just blowing away)
