Alan plays nearly all chords in this song with the 3rd and 4th fingers
anchored, except in the bridge.
He uses a variety of D chords with different bass notes (C/G/F#) that vary
across performances. Use them
as you like or just use the Dsus4 everywhere.
Here are the major varitions he uses.
G (G5): 3x0033
G (G6): 320000 (played in the bridge on the lines that lead with Am)
C (Csus2): x30033
Em (Em7): 020033
D (Dsus4): xx0233 (most common D)
D (Dsus4/F#): 2x0233 (used in the first and third lines in the bridge or can
be used everywhere)
D (Dsus4/E): xx2233 (used in "farewell to France")
D (Dsus4/C): x3x233 (also used in "farewell to France" in some performances)
At the end of each chorus, Alan does a walkdown on the final "row" as
follows:
x3x033
x2x033
x00033
3x0033
The first verse is sung a cappella on the record and in most recordings until
the walkdown on the last G.
