Notes:
The chorus should use the barred version of the (A) chord.

The general progression goes something like this:
    A          C#m           F#           D           A           E-----------------------------------------------------------------------
e|  5          4             2            2           x           x
B|  5          5             2            3           2           x
G|  6          6             3            2           2           1
D|  7          6             4            x           2           2
A|  7          4             4            x           x           2
E|  5          4             2            x           x           x  
------------------------------------------------------------------------


If you want, you can add a little lick after the E chord, harder to do on the guitar than the piano.e|------------------------------------|B|------------------------------------|G|------------------------------------|D|---------2----------2---------------|A|---2h4--------2h4-------------------|E|------------------------------------|
