NOTE: (PALM MUTING, p.m.)
To reproduce the sloppy sound of the song keep hitting the lower
strings palm muted (E A (D)).For the higher strings the muting
can be loosened to get a slightly ringing sound.
Listen to the song to figure out the rhythm.

Dear Susan, I k[G]now you love me [C]so
But I want to [G]hear it in my [C]ear
You know I'd be t[G]here working at my c[C]raft

Dry up your [F]tear and feel no [G]fear
