 In the meantime, here's some other chords to try on that song.


 


 Hope you like them...

 The 'A' chord (you're playing the 1-5-8 version with no 3rd --


 


 not major or minor) is actually two chords, a suspension that


 


 resolves to the major -- played at the 12th fret (drag).


 


 


 Once it gets to the break, there's the two chord da Daahh da Daahh


 


 stuff... those chords are


 


 


 

 
 ------------------
 ------7-----------
 ------7------5h6-- (Do various riffs here)
 ------7------5----
 ---7--5---7--7----
 ---5--5---5--5----

 


 


 


 The 5'th fret on the D string is a min 7 interval making the


 


 major a dominant 7. The 5h6 is a hammer-on (gives it that


 


 bluesy feel).
