CAPO 2
| D |
| B |
| G |
| D |
| A |
| E |
The high E string should be tuned down a full step, so it is the same as the third fret
on the B string. This can also be played satisfactorily with standard tuning, if it is
your preference.

The strumming pattern is very simple, and is best acquired from listening to the song
and trying to play along with it. Roughly speaking, it's something like this:
-----------------------------------------
G6 Dadd9 Am Asus2
D-DU UDU D-DU UDU D-DU UDU UDU UDU
-----------------------------------------
And no, those aren't protons and neutrons, they're strokes. (Smile if you get that!)
The chords as given above are my suggestions. Alternatively, you can use Am7 (002010)
instead of Asus2, and you can play both halves of the chorus using the same chord
progression (i.E. replacing F7M with Dadd9).
