*If you have trouble with the Gsus4 you can play a Csus2 (X-3-0-0-3-3) instead, ideally (for sake of speed), keeping your fore-finger on the 2nd fret of the A string while using your middle finger to switch between the
3rd fret of the E and A string. Which sounds more complicated but really you're just moving one finger and it
can allow you to play it more quickly, as the change is almost constant during every G (I couldn't fit the real amount of changes in with the lyrics lol). *You can also of course ignore all the Gsus4's and play an arpeggio just using G instead. This song is after all played by 2 guitars not one.
