* Don't PLAY the c at the first fret on the b string, but it's helpful to
anchor your index finger there

$ - don't play 'D Dx' on the third line of the verse

+ on the very last note of the song, bend the g upto an a by pushing down the
g string BEHIND the nut (but don't expect to be in tune afterwards),
alternatively, just hammer on to the second fret on the g string


EADGBe
x02220 - A augmentedA
xx0232 - D MajorD
xx0230 - Dsus9
xx0010 - 'Dx'  ?? Dsus4(add7,9) ??
xx0233 - Dsus4Dsus4
022100 - E MajorE
320003 - G+G

h is a hammer on
p is a pull off
~~ is vibrato
-x- pick, but mute the string at the neck


/ is bend up

 0.5
/   is bend up half a half step


Sounds great on a 12 string! Any improvements welcome.
