Plagiarism my fucking arse. The riff has similarities but apart from that, absolutely nothing.

The first half of the song was done all in one take. It was also the first time he'd ever played the verse and chorus melodies on the guitar. The outro solo was actually recorded bit by bit over a period of months, totally improvised, so as to make it all as fresh as possible without repeating himself, and also so that each part was recorded when he felt he was playing at his best.

People talk about Colplay because Coldplay ripped Joe off.
