Notes: After I did the acoustic version of audioslave's "Like a Stone",
I thought I'd try to create a few nonexistent 'acoustic versions'... 
Here's the first one. Coming soon: 'Yesterday and tomorrow'
By the way: some of these chord names look as ridiculous as they do, because
I had no idea how to call them. So, I put them through a chord generator
and, apparently, these are their names. 
The Aadd9sus4 and Aadd9sus4* are more or less the same chords, but I think they
sound better when they're played differently.

Tuning: standard E (EADGBE)
