CHORDS: G (320033) A (x02220) Csus4 (x32033) B (x2444x) E (022100) Fsus4 (xx3233) C* (x3555x) D (xx0232) Dsus4 (xx0233) Bb (x1333x) B7 (x21202) A7sus4 (x02033) A7 (x02020) D7 (xx0212) C/Bsus4 (x20033) The A7sus4 chord is a transition chord in the bridge so I usually play just one down strum. Instead of C/Bsus4 you can play a G but I play it this way. Enjoy! INTRO: (played quietly with more emphasis on the bass notes) G E G E VERSE 1:
