On the recording, power chords are used on all but the bridge.
It isn't too hard to play most of the lead line in the intro/outro with hammer-ons under the chords.
The tab already here has them very well explained.
Intro:  C-  Em-  Am-  F    G(2x)
COnce she came like a Emvision in the night
AmI fell in love before the Fmorning arrived
AmShe wore a blue dress to Fcombat the heat
CDrank beer from the bottle and Gdanced in the street
CThen I heard her singing something fairly familiar
EmA tale of two lovers in the thick of the summer
AmAnd there in the moment we Fkissed in the hammock
CWe argued over which GBad Religion album was Ambetter F  
CI said "No ConGtrol" or "SuffAmer"F  C  G  
Then Cshe became queen of the Emneighborhood parties
While AmI was an unknown boy aFlong for the ride
AmKept the guitar Fright by my side
CIt was better than conversing with the Gkids I didn't like
But on the Cfourth of July when the fireworks rang out
She Emmet a new boy who was more hip and less strung out
AmI drove home with Ffire in the sky 
CFiddled with the dials and Gstumbled across AmsomethingF

C Em

Once she came like a vision in the night

Am F

I fell in love before the morning arrived

Am F

She wore a blue dress to combat the heat

Drank beer from the bottle and danced in the street

Then I heard her singing something fairly familiar

A tale of two lovers in the thick of the summer

We argued over which Bad Religion album was better

C G Am F C G

I said "No Control" or "Suffer"

C Em

Then she became queen of the neighborhood parties

Am F

While I was an unknown boy along for the ride

Am F

Kept the guitar right by my side

It was better than conversing with the kids I didn't like

But on the fourth of July when the fireworks rang out

She met a new boy who was more hip and less strung out

Am F

I drove home with fire in the sky

Fiddled with the dials and stumbled across something
