The basic rhythm figure continues through all the verses, bass implies Different harmonies to the two chords Dadd9 and Asus4/E. In the second verse The letters behind slashes (i.e. Dadd9/F#) are the bass notes, guitar plays Just Rhy.fig.1. The lyrics are a bit faulty, I'll fix them later. I hope you Get the idea. Enjoy, and e-mail me for any corrections or comments.
