Do It Again Acoustic

Awesome song. I hope this helps people learn to play it...I don't guarantee it's 100%, 
comments are appreciated if you find a flaw. But this is how I've been playing the song, 
it sounds damn close.

Capo on 3

e-----------x--------------x------------x----------------x----------------|
B--------3--x------------2-x----------3-x--------------0-x----------------|
G------0----x-2--------2---x--------0---x-0----------0---x----------------|
D----2------x---2----2-----x------2-----x---0------0-----x----------------|
A-----------x-----0--------x--0h3-------x------0h2-------x----------------|
E-0---------x--------------x------------x----------------x----------------|

This is repeated throughout the intro. (Hit the strings at the x's, immediately after 
the prior note. It's best to hit only a few strings so that that note's sound can still 
through.)

The chords to the song are:

Em7    A    C    B7
e-0    0    0    2
B-3    2    1    0
G-0    2    0    2
D-2    2    2    0 (or 1)
A-2    0    3    2
E-0    x    x    x

They're played kind of tricky. He goes back to Em7 after every note; you'll have to 
to the song to figure out the rhythm. Then after the B7 is played, he plays:

e-----------------|
B-----------------|
G--0h2-2h3p2p0----|  And back into chords
D-------------2-0-|
A-----------------|
E-----------------|

I also think the first solo is simply the chords played with an added finger on the Em7:

e-3
B-3
G-0
D-2
A-2
E-0

Lyrics:

So you got what you want out of me
Took me for the ride but you never bothered saying goodbye
No return, I burn
Everything you learned put me in detention
Now you�ve got so much attention from me
But I�d do it again

Cause when she starts leaving
My heart stops beating once again
And when she starts waving,
My heart starts breaking up again
But I�d do it again

So I got what I want out of you but I choose to keep real close
Keep it so nobody knows
What I have, is all that I have from you
And I�m so afraid of losing,
And I'm so afraid of bruising
Cause I�ve been here before but I still want more and I�d do it again, I�d do it again

Cause when she starts leaving
My heart stops beating once again
And when she starts waving,
My heart starts breaking up again
But I�d do it again

(x2)
No return, I burn
Everything you learned put me in detention
Now you�ve got so much attention from me

But I'd do it again, I'd do it again

Cause when she starts leaving
My heart stops beating once again
And when she starts waving,
My heart starts breaking up again
But I�d do it again


Good luck!
