*I recommend landing that G root at the end of the intro lick with your ring finger.
It sets you up for that G7sus2 chord.
for the sake of reference.
VERSE
G7sus2(intro lick)
Give me some fire, and a piece of glass
G7sus2(intro lick)
Hear that train, floatin' past
G7sus2(intro lick)
On feathered tracks, with helium wheels
G7sus2(walk down bars, G,F#,F)
Got no coal, got no steel
CHORUS
F   C   G(walk down bars, G, F, to E)
Opium, won't you smile on my brain
E   F   C   G(walk down bars, G,F#,F)
Flowers and fog, you've got me feeling no pain
F   C   G(walk down bars, G, F, to E)
It's 8:00 AM not a quarter past 3
E   F   C   G(intro lick x2 back into the second verse)
Flowers and fog wont you rescue me
and keyboard but always keeping that G7sus2 home base. Enjoy
