I don't know the names of some of the chords and whatnot, so here's how I play them – note that you only briefly touch on E? and B? and could avoid them if you found it easier to play. CHORDS: E|-0----0-----------------0----0----1--------------| B|-1----1------2-----3----1----1----3--------------| G|-2----0------3-----4----0----3----2--------------| D|-3----2------4-----5----0----2----3--------------| A|------0-----------------2----3----0--------------| E|------0-----------------0----0----0--------------| F E?
