SWEET PAIN

I can't give you Chan's noodlings, however I can give you John's rhythm guitar.
Time signature alters between 7/8 and 4/4 so pay attention. I have tried to 
mark them clearly ("1 2 3 4 5 6 7 " or "1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & ")

 Verse (also intro)  Remember, "x" signifies a muted string (plecka plecka)
(open chords)
 G               D            C               F     D
|3-----3-3---x-x-2---2-2---x-|0-----0-0---x-x-1-1---2---x-|
|0-----0-0---x-x-3---3-3---x-|1-----1-1---x-x-1-1---3---x-|
|0-----0-0---x-x-2---2-3---x-|0-----0-0---x-x-2-2---2---x-|
|0-----0-0---x-x-0---0-0---x-|2-----2-2---x-x-3-3---0---x-|
|2-----2-2---x-x-----------x-|3-----3-3---x-x-3-3---------|
|3-----3-3---x-x-------------|----------------1-1---------| (repeat)
 1   2   3   4   5   6   7    1   2   3   4   5   6   7   

The fourth time through each verse, the first bar is 4/4 not 7/8
In these cases, hold the last D chord an extra eighth note.
For example:
 7/8             7/8
when cyrano de bergerac
 7/8                            7/8
fell prey to the blades of fifty men
 7/8                                 7/8  
with heart and sword he'd drive them back
 *4/4*                   7/8
perchance to see roxannes eyes light up the sky again
(if this is unclear count beats along with the recording)

 prechorus ("once upon a time" etc)
