-Chords are indicated above tablature.
-'X' indicates a string not to be played.


**The ending chord, indicated by **(E MajorE D#D# E MajorE),
is an E MajorE chord briefly going down to an D#D# and back
to an E. This is done by using the guitar's tremelo
arm (technically vibrato!) while playing an E MajorE chord.
(in this case, there is a strong emphasis on the 'B'
note in the E MajorE chord).
