I haven't seen another version quite correct, so here is the song played correctly.

2/4 = slide up
2h4 = hammer-on

Standard tuning, no capo.  The guitar on the cd is slightly flat, perhaps to compensate 
the fussiness of B strings on acoustic guitars, but not nearly so much that you 
be able to make it out.

INTRO/VERSE:
E|-------0-----------------------0---------------0---------------0--|
B|-2h3-----------3-------3---------------3---------------3----------|
G|-----------2-------2---------2-----2---------2-----2---------2----|
D|-----4-------4-------4---2h4---------4---2h4---------4---2h4------|
A|-0-------0-------0---------------0---------------0----------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2--|
G|-----------2---------------2---------------2---------------2------|
D|-----2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2----|
A|-2/4-----0-------2/4-----0-------2/4-----0-------2/4-----0--------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

*The 2h3 hammer-on only appears at the beginning of the song.  Elsewhere the open A and 
3rd fret on the B are played simultaneously.

CHORUS:
E|-------0---------------0---------------0---------------0--------|
B|-5-------------0-----------------3-------------3----------------|
G|-----4-----4-------4-------4---------2-----2-------2-------2----|
D|-6-----------6-------6-------6---4-----------4-------4-------4--|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2--|
G|-----------2---------------2---------------2---------------2------|
D|-----2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2-------2----|
A|-2/4-----0-------2/4-----0-------2/4-----0-------2/4-----0--------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

the end of the song is just one last strike of the open A following this pattern, with 
rest of the notes ringing out. enjoy. bye.
