-4 is easier
If you want to play the riff at the beginning of the song try….
Fret 1 on G
Then play E alone
And then slide from 5 to 6 on G
For the end of it play 6 an extra time after doing the slide. Hope this helped!
If anyone wants to play the riff at the beginning and through the verse/pre-chorus (in the original key), its
A|—–2h4-2—-2h4-2–
E|-4——–4——–4-
C|—4——–4——–
G|———————
If you want the chords in the chorus to sound a little more like the recorded song, you can play A, C#m, and B like this
A C#m B
A|——————4-4-4-x–2-2-2-x——-
E|——————4-4-4-x–2-2-2-x——-
C|-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1–4-4-4-x–3-3-3-x——-
G|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2–6-6-6-x–4-4-4-x——-
For anyone seeking more of a challenge: add in a B on “around you”, followed by E7 Dbm E7 B after “you” for that little riff from the original song
