Note: This song can easily be played in its entirety without ever playing your high E 
string (so it's a good one to play if you broke it ;) Just play the higher end part of 
the A chord at the end of the verse lines at 5 and 6 of the B and G string respectively 
(x0x65x) and play the final D chord at the 5th fret (x5777x).
