The chords below are the basic chords, the adds and sus�s in parentheses are the notes 
hammer onto/off of.

You should play the Em7 up the neck at the seventh fret:

E�0
B�8
G�7
D�0
A�7
E�0

Play the A7 as a barre on the 5th fret when you add the 9 (hammer your pinky onto the 
fret of the top string), and as an open chord when you play the add 6 (alternating you 
between 3rd and 2nd frets on the top string).

For the G sus, play an open G and hammer onto the 1st fret of the B string for the 4-3 suspension.

And for the love of God, put some funk into your strumming.  Please?  Do it for me.


INTRO : Em7 A7 (add 9)

VERSE 1:

Em7                     A7 (add 9)
I've been waiting a long time
I was just hoping I might find

C7               G(sus)          A7 (add 6)
Ah, the right kind of lover for me

Well you know I�ve been lonesome
God knows we all been lonesome

Some people think being lonesome really means being free

CHORUS:

          C7           B7          Bm/E

We live in a world full of confusion
A culture based in illusion

Some people think it�s amusing, but its really just fantasy
