Measure with two chords given, e.g. | A B | is the equivalent of \r\n| A / B / |. Use of the % instructs how many times to repeat the preceding measure, so | Am | % x3 | is the \r\nequivalent of 4 measures of Am. Also, I'm not 100% confident on the penultimate measure of the verse, \r\n| Em E |. There may be something else going on there, but this is close enough.
