Notes:
Beginners can play the open Bm chord if you can't play barre chords. If you find the Bm chord fairly easy to play, you should consider learning barre chords - much easier.
The timing can be a little tricky - look at the timing count in the Intro above and play along till it feels comfortable counting while you play... after you listen to the song a few times you will get the hang of it.
I have charted the song so that most chords are ON the beat which makes it easier to play along with especially if you are playing solo. You can experiment with the off-beat work once you get a good feel for the song.
The G chord can also be played as G/D which means a G chord leading with a D bass note which can be played as xx0003 - simply omit the bottom 2 strings so that you lead with an open D note on the 4th string... see charts above.
