Here's my take on Mike's part:
|--------------------------------|
|-------------------2------------|
|--------------2-4----4-2--------|
|--------0-2/4------------4-2----|
|--0-2/4----------------------4--|
|--------------------------------|

|--------2---------5---3--------|
|--2-----3---------5---2--------|
|--2-----2-----2-4-6-4-3--------|
|--2-----0-2/4-----7---0-4-2----|
|--0-2/4---------------------4--|
|-------------------------------|

The part on the left is just the straight riff.  I'm a solo
acoustic player, so I use the one on the right with the
chords.  It makes it a lot more full, but you gotta nail it
to really make it sound nice.

Intro:
   A   A9  D   Amaj7  Dmaj7 D6  D   
|--5---7---2----9---9---9---7---5--|
|--5---5---3----9---9---7---7---7--|
|--6---6---2----9---9---7---7---7--|
|--7---7---0----7---7---0---0---0--|
|--0---0--------0---0--------------|
|----------------------------------|

   A   A9  D   Amaj7  Dmaj7
|--5---7---2----9---9---9--|
|--5---5---3----9---9---7--|
|--6---6---2----9---9---7--|
|--7---7---0----7---7---0--|
|--0---0--------0---0------|

Verse 1:
  A         D           A       D
I hear some people been talkin' me down,
A        D        A        D
Bring up my name, pass it 'round.
A          D           A     D
They don't mention the happy times
A       D            A       D
They do their thing, I'll do mine.

Chorus:
A C#m                 C#m F#
     Ooh baby, that's hard to change
A C#m                     C#m F#
     I can't tell them how to feel.
A C#m                 C#m F#
      Some get stoned,    some get strange,
E                        D
  But sooner or later it all gets real.
     A A9 D      Amaj7 Dmaj7 D6 D (as intro)
Walk on,    walk on,
     A A9 D      Amaj7 Dmaj7 (as intro)
Walk on,    walk on,

Fill:

Verse 2:
I remember the good old days,
Stayed up all night gettin' crazed.
Then the money was not so good,
But we still did the best we could.

Chorus:
Ooh baby, that's hard to change
I can't tell them how to feel.
Some get stoned, some get strange,
But sooner or later it all gets real.
Walk on, walk on,
Walk on, walk on.

Repeat fill and fade
