The easiest way to play the G chord progression during the bridge is to play a regular
open G (with the B string open and the A string muted) and play one fret lower on the high E string for 
each chord, emphasizing the higher three strings.

GAnd I drove all the way Emhome listening to the CGaslight Anthem. 
GAnd thinking how I can't stop letting people Emdown, I'm surely not as Ccool as I was back in sGchool.
