**Note that the acoustic version is sung/tuned half step down using the exact same chords.**
The Em is played at the x75xxx position.
This allows you to more easily do the filler/transition 5 hammer on 7 on the low E string after 4 counts.
A lot of it is the same shape but sliding up or down 2 frets
e.g. G (played 32xxxx) to A (played 54xxxx) and C (x32010) to Dadd9add11 or designated here as D11 (x54030).
Do note that the alternating chord changes in the chorus are pushed
i.e. you have to change every second chord on the upstrum.
To recap, these are the chord shapes you need:
Em G A C D11 Em7 D/F# Dsus4 Am
E ----x-------x------x------0------0------0------3-------3-------0-----
B ----x-------x------x------1------3------1------3-------3-------1-----
G ----x-------x------x------0------0------0------2-------2-------2-----
D ----5-------x------x------2------4------2------0-------0-------2-----
A ----7-------2------4------3------5------2------0-------x-------0-----
E ----x-------3------5------x------x------0------2-------x-------x-----
