Chorus
Bridge:
This part's tricky. The first couple chords, you strike twice and mute, then go
to the next one. It would really help to watch a video while learning this part.

Chords in parentheses are only struck twice before moving on.

Pre-Chorus, end D play with high e string to change sound like Jon does every two strokes
