I could not make out the words in the 3rd line of verse 3.

I put in what they sounded like to me. Please let me know

the correct words and I will edit the text. Thanks.

I recommend playing along with the recording to learn the

bouncing pattern of this song. I have added / marks in places

where there are bits of instruments happening. They are only

as a rough guide.

For the (G) chord, I think it sounds better to use the one illustrated below,

Where the B string is held at the 3rd fret. Your choice.

E-----3------|

B-----3------|

G-----0------|
