The G is played like an A on the 10th (10 10 12 12 10 10). The G/f# is a G with an f# as bass note (- 9 12 12 10 10 If you can, lift your barr?-finger on every E at the end of the lines of the verses (i think if you listen to the song, youll know what i mean ;) ). Hope everyone is pleased with my tab! Enjoy!
