Tips/ideas:
Dsus2 and Asus2 (relative to capo 2) sound good in this key. I sometimes replace the
last half of a bar of D or A by Dsus2 and Asus2, respectively. You can also use Dsus2 as a transition
chord between D and F#m. I have added this to the bridge where I think it sounds good, but you can also
play D - A - E.
You can play this song without capo. Transpose this tab two semitones up. You might want to play a smaller
E chord (xx2100) in that case as it sounds a bit too heavy, especially in the verses. The above mentioned
variation is a bit more difficult if you play without capo.
I've added strumming patterns for the verses, chorus and bridge. This is what occured to me naturally when
I first played along. You may want to experiment with this.
~ = single strum and let ring
