[End] ignore this - for later reference Bm (1 triplet) Bsus2 (1 triplet + 2 beats) G (then think GMaj7) - 2 triplets then 2 beats - the 'and id' comes in the last beat of 2 so on the &2 of 1 2 3 1&2 Play G1 G2 G3 G1+Snare (stop) then sing 'and id' with no guitar Important that the strings drone lots - open strings also works as well in places
[Interlude] - 1 2S3, 1 2 3, 1 2 - Bm to Bsus2 1 2S3, 1 2 3, 1 2 - G to Gmaj7 with figure 1 2S3, 1 2 3, 1 2 - Bm to Bsus2 1 2 3, 1+S stop 2 3 no chord sing 'and you' - G
