~~~Interlude (see bottom)


This is the interlude after the chorus.
Shift the basic structure of the C chord up two frets and use the index finger to hold
the b and e strings on 3.

E|--------------------|
A|5~------------------|
D|---4~---------------|
G|-------0~-----3~----|
B|------------3~------|
e|--------------------|

Note that during the verse, the song sounds fine with either the Dsus or a Cadd9.  I've
the song with either chord and no one notices anything wrong with the music.  I'm not
sure which one is correct, if anyone can point me in the right direction, my email 
is huntbryan36@yahoo.com

Also, if you are a beginner or don't know too many chords, these chords aren't too hard.
Just play the standard chord and keep your ring and pinky fingers on the 3rd frets of
e and b strings.

If you have any questions/concerns/corrections, let me know at huntbryan36@yahoo.com
