CHORDS:
    C   G    C   G  Fmaj7  G5  Am  F   Dm    D   G*  A

A|---------|-3---2---(0)-------0---3------|------2---0--|
E|---------|-----3---------3-------1------|------3------|

Opening lick is a pick-up on Beat-4 (based on C-chord in eighth position)
Stumbling rhythm has accents on 2 and 3+ thus:

      >     >     >
  1 + 2   3 + 4   1   2 + 3 + 4
  / / /   / /     /     /   / /

Main guitar plays  Fmaj7/A  throughout, but only the
gliss strum on Beat-1 produces the bass note clearly.
Open 1st-string occasionally forms G6

INTRO/VERSE-A:
   NC           C       G      (Am) Fmaj7         Fmaj7/A     NC
   4   e  +  a    1   +   2   + a 3   +   4   +     1   2 + 3 + 4   e  +  a

E|--------------|---------------------------------|--------------------------|

  h = hammer on
  p = pull off
=== = sustained note
  ` = position shift (slide and pick again)
  / = slide legato (destination not picked)

Vocal melody is phrased differently in VERSE-B sections
and progression is played entirely in first position.

VERSE-B:
(let ring)
   C       G5      Am  Fmaj7         Fmaj7/A
   1   +   2   + a 3 e +   4   +     1   2 + 3e+a4e+a
