It's only natural with time, details can somehow slip your mind

Comments :
The guitar player on the record didn't play E/G# and D/A Chords, I guess he
played standard E and D Chords, but the Bass Player played a G# and A while
the guitar player played an E and D. Usually that's nothing to care about,
but in this song the bass is very typical. So if you want it to sound
authentic, then you'll have to play it with the chords written here.
E/G# Type 1 E/G# Type 2 D/A A4
e0 e4 e2 e0
b0 b5 b3 b3
g1 g4 g2 g2
D2 D- D4 D2
A2 A- A0 A0
E4 E4 E- E-
I'm not sure about the 3'rd and 4'th chord in the intro. I hope that they're
the right ones; at least they're very close to the original chords.
