Alot of things start happening here...
the 12-string guitar stars messing with picking patterns based around these chords:
[Am] [E7] [G] [D9] [F] [C] [Dm] [E7]
3rd guitar plays something similar the intro 12-string part with his 6-string
2nd guitar plays this little thing after the first round of 3nd guitar part:

*Vocals* The lyrics can be found here.
the 1st and 2nd guitar keep doin' what they're doin', and 3rd sits
around and acts bored for the first verse. During the second
verse (There she stood...), 2nd guitar plays the foreground acoustic
part. It is very similar to what's found in the electric version
here, except 2nd guitar slides the chords instead of bending them.
Once we get to the chorus, 12-string plays these chords:
F C D7 Am F C Dm E
3rd guitar plays this:
G D F# "Fill 2" D Em F#
2nd guitar plays Fill 1, 2, and 3.

Once we get to the "So I called up..." verse,
2nd Guitar again plays the verse slides. When we get to the 3rd
chorus, everyone plays the same thing again except for 2nd Guitar.
the second does: Fill 3, 2, and 4 (in that order).

During the "Mirrors on the ceiling" verse, 12-string guitar does the
same picking that he did in the intro, and 3rd guitar does the 7th-fret stuff again.
2nd one is bored until the "Last thing I remember..." verse, where he plays this,
and it leads into the solo:
Last thing... I was runnin' for the door.
