Notes
=====
Tab in the chorus follows a similar sort of pattern:
G F#m F# Bm A (rake both)
e|-------------|-------------|---------2----|-2----0----|
B|-------3-----|-------2-----|-------2------|-3----2----|
G|----4--------|----2--------|----3---------|-4----2----|
D|-------------|-------------|--------------|-4----2----|
A|-------------|-------------|--------------|-2----0----|
E|-3-----------|-2-----------|-2------------|-----------|
G (rake) F#m F# Bm A (rake both)
e|-3-------|-------------|---------2----|-2----0----|
B|-3-------|-------2-----|-------2------|-3----2----|
G|-4-------|----2--------|----3---------|-4----2----|
D|-5-------|-------------|--------------|-4----2----|
A|-5-------|-------------|--------------|-2----0----|
E|-3-------|-2-----------|-2------------|-----------|
G (Rake) F# (Strums)
e|-3-------|-2---2---2-2--|
B|-3-------|-2---2---2-2--|
G|-4-------|-3---3---2-2--|
D|-5-------|-4---4---4-4--|
A|-5-------|-4---4---4-4--|
E|-3-------|-2---2---2-2--|
If just strumming instead of picking the notes, I think it sounds better to go F#m to F#7.
