(Interlude)
D5   D5/E   D5/G   D5/F#   D5/C   D5/C   D5/C   D5/C   (x2)

(Verse 2 - just like 1, except for a tacet near the end that you'll
 know where to place from listening to the recording)

(Repeat Refrain)

Notes:

Drop D tuning (DADGBE) is suggested.  For the most part, play the D5 by
just playing a D chord and muting the high-E string.  The exception is
the interlude, where if you can reach your pinky up to grab an upper A
(5th fret), you'll get a much more interesting imitation of the actual
song.

The 2nd and 3rd chord may actually be variants of G6, rather than D5
Playing them as (X2003X) and (X4003X) sounds just as good, possibly
more exotic than the D5 variations (X2023X) and (X4023X).

The only remotely weird chord is the C#dim (X45650).  Play the D-Gm-D
by sliding from the D into a short version of Gm (XXX333) and back
to D again.
