Hey,

This is a very beautiful, yet 
straightforward song. I would like 
to start off
right chords:

        Am      C        D       
        0        0       2       
F       E       E7
1       0       0
        1        1       3       1  
     0       3
        2        0       2       2  
     1       1
        2        2       0       3  
     2       2

        0        0       0       0  
     0       0

These are repeated in order 
throughout the verses. During the 
breaks between
verses the order goes.

        Am      C       D       

Am      C       D       F       

E       E7

So that's that. If you want to get 
the sound closer to the song, some 
chord
manipulation must occur. The 
alternations vary, and here's my 
best guess:

Am - Hammer on your pinky on the B 
string, then pull off your pinky, 
then
     index finger, then hammer on 
with your index again. Kind of like 
this

E|----0--------------| 
B|----1h3p1-1p0h1----| 
G|----2--------------| 
D|----2--------------| 
A|----0--------------| 
E|----0--------------| 

C and D - After the initial strum, 
pick each string of the chord

F - Pull off and hammer on your 
middle finger

E - After the first beat, place your
 pinky finger on the second fret of
the 'G' string, then take it back 
off

E|----0----0----0----| 
B|----0----0----0----| 
G|----1----2----1----| 
D|----2----2----2----| 
A|----2----2----2----| 
E|----0----0----0----| 


Also, If you're like me, you really 
like that little intro riff he 
plays:

E|-------------------------| 
B|-------------------------| 
G|---------7h9p7--5h7--/9--| 
D|-------------------------| 
A|----0--------------------| 
E|-------------------------|
