NOTE: The Acoustic Live version of this song repeats the chorus 3 times, but the first 2
missing a part of the lyrics. Therefore, I have classified the chorus into versions 1,
and 3. To play an acoustic song that sounds closer to the Studio version, here's
the pattern you should follow:
-Intro
-Verse 1
-Verse 2
-Pre Chorus
-Chorus Version 3
-Bridge (Solo)
-Chorus Version 2 x3 (Fading Out...)
And here is the pattern for the Acoustic Live version.
