[intro: slide into the open D from around the 10th fret on the D string.    
 ]
[verse: sloppy is good here--remember this is about a lazy little love 
affair]
[       and play it with your eyes closed, and hit strings that aren't 
writen]
[ fill: pick the 5th fret and bend it up a full step, release it, and then  
 pull-off to the 3rd and play the D (5th/A) staccatto                 ]
[bridge:this part is near the end, and i dont know what else to call it,    
 ]
[      'cept a bridge...it's a free strum, changing the chords every so 
often]
[       ...also, in the last verse, these become sort of fills, strummed    
 ]
[       freely in between the little verse lick.                            
 ]
[outro: drone the open D when you bend that E, and do the same type of bend 
 ]
[       as before, then play the 10th fret doublestops and the first chord 
in]
[       the bridge section.
