Note: There is a descending bass line (c, b, a, g#, g, f#, f, e) but some chords are just not comfortable to play on a guitar so adjust your voicings accordingly. I usually dodge the f# and f but sometimes manage to play them. Also the Am/G# is weird and I might be wrong about it, cause it seems to imply a C augumented chord but on the piano it sounds alright if you just keep play Am with your right hand and move the bass to G#. Intro: This bit is played a few times throughout the song. First time there is no bass note but later when it appears as the bridge, solo backing and outro the bass note is C. It repeats 3 times during the intro.
