Here is what I responded. This should clarify a few things. I play the Bm-A-G progression in one of 2 ways. (I usually further enhance the A by playing Asus2) Bm with open high 'e' (This certainly has several real names but I'm self taught and don't need to deal with them. OLGA is great but it is not GUITAR magazine). 0 Or 0 3 0 4 7 4 9 x 9 x x The A (high open 'e') 0 Or 0 Or Asus2 0 2 5 0 2 6 2 2 7 2 0 7 0 x x X The G (high 'e') 0 3 4 5 5 x Playing the tune this way sounds a lot closer to the recording.
