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


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