This is spot on, trust me I have perfect pitch. The first version is entirely wrong. This is for those who want the intro and interludes with chords for the lyrics. Obviously there are sequential notes being played during the verses, and honestly I'm too lazy to do those right now. Generally though, those notes can be improvised by hitting strings one at a time while playing with the chord fingering. Enjoy!
