I didn’t include the exact
timing, but hopefully the spacing of the chords will help. You
don’t have to be smarter than the average bear to figure the way
it goes. Also, this song sounds just as good acoustic.
Anyway, here it is folks…….
(Standard tuning sounds just fine)

the 5th fret, 4th finger on the G string at the 4th fret, and
your pointer finger on the D string at the 2nd fret. Then, when
you play 3rd frets on the A and E strings use your middle finger.
