ubi_rex@hotmail.com Chords in parenthesis are relative to a capo on the 8th fret. Capo at 3 would work, but 8 sounds closest to the album, where I think the guitarist is barring everything way up the neck. The instrumental bridge is tabbed at the bottom. Let me know if I made any mistakes. The recording is a little flat, A=435ish, so you'll sound a little off pitch unless you tune down accordingly. Weird chords: For the capo 8 chords, you can hold the Em shape and just accent the higher notes, or only play the higher notes.
