WOW!!!! Someone learned how to play in STANDARD TUNING! Im impressed! The only problem is the second part of the intro. Its really like this:

E]---------------------------
B]---------------------------
G]---3-3-3-5-5-5-2-2-2-0-0-0-
D]----5-5-5-7-7-7-3-3-3-1-1-1
A]---------------------------
E]---------------------------

Also, the chords for the outro are right, but you dont play them like that. you just hit each one once. Do the same for the last chorus.
