                              (the true A augmentedA chord)

I will not write out the strumming, just the moving parts and the fingerings for the chords.
The basis is just a constant, smooth sound, the low D MajorD is droned for a majority of the song.
A augmentedA lot of the song is just ad libbed notes so I apologize for this chaotic tab.
Feel free to play around with the chords and instrumental breaks, enjoy.
