first off, here is the chord fingering
CAPO ON 2ND FRET (which is fret 0 in this tab)
D Dsus4 G Bm A Asus4
e 3----4-------3----2-----0----0------------------------
B 2----2-------3----3-----2----3------------------------
G 3----3-------0----4-----2----2------------------------
D 0----0-------0----4-----2----2------------------------
A 0----0-------2----2-----0----0------------------------
E x----x-------3----2-----0----0------------------------
This can be played without a capo. It'll just be in a key
different than what Jay sings it. If you are using a capo,
shape chords as though the capo is the nut.
The Dsus4 and Asus4 chords are reached by hammering your little
finger to the 3rd fret on the 1st string from D to Dsus4 and
your ring finger to the 3rd fret on the 2nd string from A to
Asus4
Someone please double-check me on the lyrics, especially the
"weatherman..." line.
