Tuning: E A D G B E
Em7 is played as a normal Em chord with 3rd fret b and 3rd fret high e string both held down. F#m is played either with your pinkie on the 5th fret b string or with an open high e string. If you want to get a similar sound to the studio version emphasise the d string as the base note when playing Em7 and the A string as the base note when playing Bm. [Intro] Em7 Bm x3 Em7 [Verse 1]
