I think it sounds better when you play E instead of Em, and an A chord instead of Am. Play the A chord like this: E---|---|---|-X-|--| A---|---|---|-X-|--| D---|-X-|---|---|--| G---|-X-|---|---|--| B---|---|---|---|--| E---|---|---|---|--| Use your first finger on the G and D string. Pluck the cords. Listen to the song. If you play it like this, you can make the little 4-note riff (rather fast) at the end of each line with your left hand (1st finger), by pulling off the G and D strings. If I'm not clear, e-mail me. Oh, another thing. In the chorus, use D and Dsus4: D Dsus4 D(let ring shortly) ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Hope this helps.
