(~) = keep strumming
I'll put 3 voicings to each verse chord so you can decide which fits your playing better:
the first one is the way Eric plays it;
the second one is based on the guitar line;
and the third one is an adaptation so you can play using the guitar's lower register and sound "fuller"
Am xx7555 xx755x or x02210
Am/G# xx6555 xx655x or 4x2210
Am/G xx5555 xx555x or 3x2210
Am/F# xx4555 xx455x or 2x2210
F xx3555 xx356x or 133211
D7/F# xx4555 xx457x or 2x0212
I won't put the Bm's and Ebm's from the main riff above the lyrics because it could get a little messy, but
you know they are there (as passing chords), as it is notated in the tab below:
[Intro/Main Riff]
[Am] [Bm] [Em] [Ebm] [Dm7]
