Capo on 2nd fret
Chords are as follows (Not too sure about the names):
G Dsus4 Dsus3 Bm D Em7 G/A C#m E A [cb]B#m[/cb]
E--3-----3-----3-----2----2------3-----3-----4---0---0---2---] B--3-----3-----3-----3----3------3-----3-----5---0---2---4---] G--0-----2-----2-----4----2------0-----2-----6---2---2---4---] D--0-----------2-----4----0------0-----0-----6---3---2---2---] A--2-----------------2----0------2-----0-----4---3---0---2---] E--3-----3-----------2----0------0-----5-----4---0---0---2---]
The G/A chord is weird I know, but I saw him play it on a video. He uses his baby
finger to play it.
Intro riff (you can figure out the rhythm because I'm too lazy to write it up)is as follows:
D G(play for a bit)
E---2---0---2---5---2---0---2---3-----------------3---3--] B---3---3---3---3---3---3---3---3-----------------3---3--] G---2---2---2---2---2---2---2---0-----------------2---2--] D---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---------------------2--] A-------------------------------2------------------------] E-------------------------------3------------------------]
