NOTE: The guitar chords do NOT match the piano chords in the recorded song exactly, as there's a lot of extra
piano notes you don't always need in guitar chords. The most glaring example is the end of the bridge, where
you actually have to adjust the last note of "awake" by a step because there's no good exact chord change
(that I could find, anyway). If you can find a good hammer note/chord change for that section, do please let
me know.

[Bridge 1]
Am/C D
Here I lay, I drift away, you come in and lay beside me
