On the keyboard sections (everything except the second verse)- the
UPPERCASE letters are full chords and lowercase are individual notes.
This arrangement doesn''t translate very well onto guitar. Suggest
improvising around this basic pattern for verses 1/3 :
// D(sus9) A \\\\
e -||-------0----2-------0----2-------------0------------0----||--|
B -||------3--3---3-----3--3---3------0------2------0-----2---||--|

This song''s quite tricky to play/sing- there are two key changes in the
bridge * (from A to E) and %(E back down to A).
I keep having trouble with the end of the third line in the verse ($). I
think on keyboard its " c# D ", but on guitar, " A " sounds better,
though every so often it sounds like a Bm.
