Note: Orginally I tabbed this from the live performance before the studio version was released. I have since 
decided that it's easier to play this one with a capo on 4th fret and I added a little intro. If you want to 
play the old version just click transpose +2
A quick word about transition chords (namely in this tab the G/B) - you can take out this one without major
problems, but I like the intro with the picking; during the verses which have the same chord sequence I strum 
- either one down strum on the first verse for the Am G/B and Dm or DUD and then play the next chord. For
the rest (C, F and G) I use D DU UDU.
