This is totally correct and you can play it along with the CD. MY guitar teacher figured
out this song, not me, but I thought I would share it with others, because it is such an
awesome song.
READ: for the intro, you strum the D chord once and then play the fill and so on. It's
transcribed from the piano.
Fill 1: e|--------| Fill 2:e|--------|
B|----3-2-| B|-2-3-5--|
G|2-4-----| G|--------|
D|--------| D|--------|
A|--------| A|--------|
E|--------| E|--------|
Intro: D Fill 1 x2
