two a.m. she calls suffering

---note---
how to play...well, my ring and pinky finger stays on the 3rd fret of the first two high 
strings except when playing D/F#.  I hope you get it.

This is how I think it sounds like though I'm not really quite sure.
I listened to the lyrics myself as well, since I can't find it online.
