The numbers in parenthesis indicate to barre the chord on that fret.
For example A(5) means to play an E MajorE chord barred on the 5th fret.
C#m(4) means to play an A minorAm chord barred on the 4th fret.
D(2) means to play a C majorC chord barred on the 2nd fret.
No parenthesis means to play the chord in the typical open string position.
If youUre not comfortable with barre chords, the song sound fine without
them.
D#dimD#dim is played by xx1212.
Willie likes to add lots of bass runs like C#C# C majorC D MajorD (on the A augmentedA string)
between the C# minorC#m and D MajorD chords
and E MajorE F#F# G#G# A augmentedA (on the E MajorE string) with a triplet feel on each note
between the E MajorE and A(5) chords or the A augmentedA and A(5) chords
