I tried a few of the tabs for this song and they didn't quite sound right, so i 
transposed my own version for acoustic. This is my first tab, but it's pretty dead on.

All of these chords and progressions keep the same pattern untill Janelle's part where 
he starts doing the "na-na's"

  D                  G            D               A
e|2------------------3------------2---------------X------------------------------|
B|3------------------0------------3---------------2------------------------------|
G|2------------------0------------2---------------2------------------------------|
D|0------------------0------------0---------------2------------------------------|
A|0------------------2------------0---------------0------------------------------|
E|X------------------3------------X---------------X------------------------------|
 "Carry me, home tonight.  Just carry me, home tonight."  (repeats)

The last part at the end is the exact same part as the "when the bar closes" progression.
