The previous version was good.....but slightly inaccurate in terms of chord switching.  
The D# and G# were removed because you can make it sound almost as good, with less 
changes and creative strumming or note fillers. Play around with it a bit and you 
will see what I mean. I also tabbed out the entire song, for ease of learning.
