verse3 (same chords as verse1):

(repeat chorus)
(repeat bridge)
(repeat chorus and fade)

There are some nice little hammer-off/on things going on
with the A chord especially (Asus2, Asus4) that you can tinker
with, but hopefully this will help get people started.

Hint: In this phrasing...

E                       A
when I was young I knew everything

I think it sounds real nice if you play a quick B chord
over the word "knew", so it's like:

E                  B    A
when I was young I knew everything

You may or may not choose do to so but I thought it added a
little snap. I "smell" that B in there somewhere, especially
if you play the B without the high "e" string fingered, but open.
'course I'm doing this on an acoustic and trying to eek out a little
extra "magic".
