Thank you! Just a heads up that the lyrics are "when every things gone, at least you got nothing" not "when you've got nothing at least you've got nothing". Thanks again, this chord tab is otherwise great!

Thanks for the tab, 5 stars! This small lick is played in the beginning and at times in the verse, replacing the D chord. Listening to the song, the strum for the Intro/Verses is mostly picking up and down, bouncing between the chords' root note and the B string. I like to play it slightly sloppy and inconsistent, because it adds a bit of character. e|-------------| B|-------------| G|-------------| D|-----0----0--| A|--0h2--0h2---| E|-------------|
