[Chords]
G 320033
C X32010
G5 3x003x
Dadd4 x5403x
C/G 3x2013
D/F# 2x0232
I like the Dadd4 in the chorus, but in live videos, he sometimes plays D7 instead. In place of the D/F# chords
you can also just do a walk-down using the F# and, of course, he uses plenty of hammer-ons and pull-offs
throughout.
To approximate the intro, I play the following measures twice. The notes in parentheses should only be played
the second time through. Note that this tab approximates the intro from the official album version linked
above. The video that YouTube automatically links in the app and on the site is an earlier version of the song
with a different intro.

Play the first half of the intro again. Slow it down and end on a strummed G chord.
