The basic chord progression is:
FA DO REm DO
If you're down and confused...
LAm SOL FA
There's a rose in a fisted glove...
DO FA DO
Love the one you're with
REm DO
Love the one you're with
SIb DO
DO-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
The acoustic guitar is actually played in open C tuning, and the lower
strings form sort of a drone throughout. Low to high, the tuning is
DO SOL DO SOL DO MI
-4 -2 -2 0 +1 0 (deviation from standard)
and the basic riff is then
005555 004003 002001 000000
Don't ask me how to play the Am-G-F part or the Bb-C in that tuning, though...

PS: Incidentally, the Moody Blues' "Question" is also in open C, and uses
the *exact* same pattern under the "it's not the way that you say it" part.
Try it! The verses go
MIbdim REm DO
Why do we never get an answer
where Ebdim = 000232 (that's right, the same fingering as D in standard)
Dm = 002001
C = 000000
