E|----------------------------------------------------------------|

The first time when this is played without going into the chorus you don't play the E at the end just continue with the C# It's tempting to match the keyboard rhythm on this but guitar doesn't seem to do that. Chorus:

  Meheheeeennnnn...
  G#m
e|-4-4-4-X--4-4-4-X-|
B|-4-4-4-X--4-4-4-X-|
G|-4-4-4-X--4-4-4-X-|
D|-6-6-6-X--6-6-6-X-|
A|-6-6-6-X--6-6-6-X-|
E|-4-4-4-X--4-4-4-X-| etc then to C#

   C#

A|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|
