|-33333-x-3333333-5-5-

If you want to play it on one guitar(like me)you would play it
like this:
|------------------------
|----------4444----------
|-----3333------33-5-----
|-5-5----------------5-5-
|-5-5----------------5-5-
|-3-3----------------3-3-
and so on...
This sounds perfect to me, when I play it with the song.
