This is how I play it on my acoustic, sounds good to me. Guitar is in D standard, so tune all of your strings down a tone to play with the track. Chords, notated as if played in E; E : 022100 Asus2/F# : 202200 G#m ( Emaj7/G# ): 466400 A ( Asus2 ) : 577400 F#m ( F#m9 ): 244200 B ( Bsus4 ) : 799800 B/D# : x69800 / x64400 All chords have the first and second string ringing open throughout. Don't worry about the chord names - the idea is mainly Esus/Emaj7, but reflecting the moving bass notes/inversions. I play all of the 6th string bass notes with my thumb. Follow the fingerings above to make this work nicely (I've simplified the names).
