Such an incredible, ambiguous song. However you interpret it, I hope you enjoy playing it.

I feel it's worth noting here that the way I play the chords over the (oh, oh, oh...) sections is as follows -
Am7 Am7/B C D | E e|--0---0---0--(0)-|--0--| B|--1---1---1---3--|--5--| G|--0---0---0--(0)-|-(0)-| D|--2---2---2---4--|--6--| A|--0---2---3---5--|--7--| E|-----------------|-----|
