I'm not sure how many people will ever read this but I wanted to work this out anyway so I thought I'd post
it on here. I think the into is an open E minor played without playing the E string (A string 2nd fret and
D srting 2nd fret) alternating with the same 2 strings played open, also seems to fit the 3rd and 5th lines
of the chorus.
