Just a note on the song, on live versions he plays F#m 244222 but on the record you can clearly hear
F#m7 (open high e string) and to me it sounds most similar to the second chord on Radiohead
Fake Plastic Trees 2x0220 so I used this chord below. He plays the E7sus4 with root on second fret of a
string hence the parentheses on open low E string. There is a hammer on at the end of some verses which
I showed below heard best at 0:24. Also when playing live you can see him play Ebm 6887 and then Bmaj7
played with thumb on low E string 7th fret 7x887x
