This song has many variations so I'll only write the most frequently
occuring ones.
i'm lazy so I only write the A and E strings if the D and G strings
aren't in use.
This song doesn't really have a definite chorus or verse or bridge or
anything like that so I'll just write the lyrics instead so you don't
loose your place.
Alrighty:

(no bass for this bit, as you probably know already)
Now Play the Verse Above Again but whole notes are broken up into
half notes and quarter notes. (you'll get the feel of it after a while)

Then play the "Lie with me....." Riff again twice and then the "Keep
all your secrets" riff again a few times until the end of the song.
Alright, that's it, have fun.
