CHORDS:

E   0  5  7   2    10
B   0  5  7   2    10
G#  0  5  7   1    10

B   0  5  7   x    10
E   0  5  7   2    10


NOTE:  This song is actually NOT in EBEG#BE tuning, but rather in
standard tuning.  However, I think it makes it much easier to play this
way, esp. with just one guitar.  If you want to play it in standard, the
chord names are still valid.
