Wow this is great. I always want to play this song but its tough when you don't have two friends to play with whenever. I agree its tough to do the song justice acoustically and solo but if it can be done you've done it. Thanks for this.

Well this is an arrangement for a solo acoustic guitar. To play like the record you need at least 2 people. Personally, if I'm playing this by myself I play:

 

Cmaj7              Cmaj7#4

-x------------------x-
-x------------------x-
-4------------------2-
-5------------------4-
-3------------------3-
-x------------------x-

 

The two high strings can be played open too in both chords

I would check the other threads on this too if you're looking for extra stuff, like here. I had something from awhile ago that seems pretty close to what goes on in the recording.

 

-  -  - - -    - -
-  -  - - -    - -
-  -  - - -    - -
12 10 2 0 9    5 10
12 12 3 3 10 9 7 12
-  -  - - -    - -

One for each chord, the 9 is a stepping stone to the next chord.

 

The only thing I would change now is you can play -34--- instead of -30---, but either really works.
