been trying to figure it out off and on for years

woke up this morning, thought i would ask gfy, its the only board ive been an active member of

any help or referrals would be appreciated :)

You can buy the sheet music here - http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic...?ppn=MN0063624 for just $5.50 - you can also see the first page free, including chords.

agreed here, it's the best way to learn a song and then you can modify it once you know very well the original version

i think this link would give an overview of the older acoustic version, but i looked briefly and i think it's telling you via notes
