*Notes/Notation*
X: the string is either muted or not played.
0: the string is played open.
*The A chord during the second verse is played on the �go� part of the word �ago�;
I added a dash to illustrate that.*
*I am firmly rooted in omitting the B in the G chord, playing it as a 3X0033
rather than 320033, but either way will work.*
*The Bm chord is difficult for first timers�and even senior guitar players to some
degree�but just try it in barre form, and if that doesn�t work, see if doing
XX4432 works better.*
