(REPEAT & FADE)

[lick 1]
after playing the B chord, play 2 single notes, F#, F, on E string to transition to the
Em chord. Just the E string is tabbed here: E:--2-1--|

==========================
[CHORDS]
D/F#     3xx232
Dm7/G    3xx211
C/B      x22010
Cdim7    xx1212
D#dim7   xx4545
G/B      x20003

A quick music factoid - going from Cdim7 to D#dim7, as tabbed here, the chords are
actually interchangeable. In other words, Cdim7 is also D#dim7, and vice versa. And both are
also F#dim7, and Adim7. By notating the song as 2 different chords, going from Cdim7 to 
D#dim7, is just a way to show a change. I could have just as well as left it only as Cdim7
or D#dim7.
