 You can play this using the open G and C chords as
 well, but it sounds like barre chords in the song
 to me. Either way just follow this progression:

    G G  C  G G G G  C  G G G G  C  G G G G G G G G
E|--3-3--3--3-3-3-3--3--3-3-3-3--3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|

 Notes with a "+" under them mean that they are very
 staccato (short and not accented) so if you can't
 play this piece as fast as Chris, exclude these notes.
